    68 vs 71 grills

    Are the 68 through the grill fog lights the same pattern as the 71`s,-eg. will the 68 take the two screws.Also,does the 68 have the holes in the battery boxes to accept the screws and brackets to hold the fog lights.I can`t remember when the two batteries appeared.

    '68MY still had the single battery. The dual boxes appeared in '69 along with the wheelbase lengthening.

    They won't fit as the '68 grills are longer.
