Happy Halloween everybody :)

I'm finally getting back to my fender mounted turn signal lights on the 1970 cuda.
There was a barrel clip that came with everything. I'm guessing that snaps into the fender & the light housing pushes through it...correct? Some of the drawings I've seen indicate that it goes below the fender. Thank you, Joe

I was correct on my thoughts of the barrel clip. It pushes into the hole in the fender & the pin on the t/s light housing pushes through it, kind of in the same manner as you might install emblems with pins instead of tape....Joe

I didn't think it would be a hard question to answer. There was quite a few 70 cudas built with the A01 option....Yes? I'm just trying to put back some of the things that were gone. I had enough evidence to say that car had that option. I need to invest in another camera as mine died & I'm a flip phone type of guy.....Joe

I added the A01 to may car and just used PAL nuts instead of the clip to secure those to the fenders. Picture is from another thread on here

Well, I guess i'm still not there yet. The housing & gasket sit on the top of the fender. Was the light assm with lens, bulb & pigtail designed to go from the bottom side, through the hole in the fender & the little screw go through the bracket into the housing? Sorry. Just trying to undo what has happened to the car years ago & I think the big hole in the fender is too small. Maybe somebody could measure the big hole please.....Thank you, Joe

I have an original 1970 fender with the turn signal mounting - I will try to get over to storage and take a few photos and measurements

Thank you. I measured the hole in the gasket & it measures .600....Joe
