Guys, my original fender mounts are missing some parts and neither works, and I see no one offers any replacement parts. The box catalog suppliers offer a set for about $130-$150 ish. Are they all the same quality, prolly from just one Chinamanese repoper. Kinda scanned the For Sale pages and did see some that looked like mine but had a phillips screw on top , mine do not, so not sure what years WILL work and what years are the same in looks....any opinions please.....thanks....
 
The ones with phillip screws on top is 73 and lates

the ones with the stud and nut down the fender are 70/72. Which were available in chromed and painted ( primed ) version.

There are also 70/72 Plymouth version which are for hoods, not fenders, but I can't recall which is the exact diff between them. They look virtually the same thought.
 
This is what they look like:

My 71-72 Chargers and Darts have chrome. All 69-72 Dodge A's and B's are chrome.
All my 71-72 Plymouths B's are painted. 70-72 Cudas are painted but 70-2 Plymouth A's are chrome.
Both are different housings too.
70 Cudas are their own being a shorter painted one.
All 73-up models are the big ugly chrome ones with the screw.

73 and lates, I did know that... Is the one on my car LOL

We should add the lates ones with dual wiring lead. I guess for those mounted on headlight header panels? Cordobas/Chargers... M and F bodies

interesting all the breakdown variety on the 69/72. Althought I'm pretty sure have seen painted on 71/72 Chargers. Can be wrong thought ( or maybe owner changed )... but dunno the kind of housing. From the distance they look all the same.

In Plymouth B-body 72's are different than 71's as far as wiring. 71's don't have a wrap on the wire while 72's do. Here is an Nos set of 72's

My 72 fender turn signals were trashed. I do not have the money to get replacements. So ready for this? I used a set of 73 or newer ones and they actually went into the hole. They do have a small round gap in the front that is hardly seen. See picture. They work fine. OK they are not correct but I had them and they work fine. Just trying to help.

Thanks much for all the posts Guys, and after reworking the ground on one of mine, I got it to work. But the other is just the fender cap, missing the lamp holder, lens, and wiring. So if any one has one with usable parts they wish to part with, pm me.
 
I'm a cheapskate but why not just fab up a lens outta something and find a bulb/wiring harness?

My bulbs are frozen in the sockets and the wiring was cut. I'm gonna put some led's in there with a resistor inline.
