Got a favor to ask you 70 roadrunner/GTX/satellite guys:
Can someone measure the opening in the fender for the headlight bezel/grille?? I attached a picture of mine. The driver's side measureas about 8 1/2" just in front of the inner edge of the outer headlamp. On the passenger set, the measurement is more like 8 3/4" (as you can see in the pic.) I noticed this while trying to install a new grille and headlight bezel set from year-one.
I think the fender on the driver's side fender was replaced with a satellite fender by the previous owner. They should be the same, though, right? Were the fenders always matched at the factory? Maybe one is aftermarket, or wrecked/repaired? Any ideas on how to make this look right?
It looks to me like the headlights and bezel need to move up, but I topped them out as high as they will go, even ground the washer flat on one side to top them out more, and it still leaves about a half inch between the bezel and the flat upper edge of the opening (keep in mind, I don't have the chrome trim installed).
