Early 260's have them mounted either below the front bumper, in the valance, or in the grille. Late 260's have them in the grille, just like the 75-78 280's. Figure out what ya need, and post an ad in the Parts Wanted Section.

tank you so much for your help. i was wondering if you could convert a older 260 from the signals in the valence under the bumper to the gril?

Now WHY would you want to do that? Hahahah. The 240-260 grille is narrower than the 280 grille, and have different mounting points. It would take some fabrication skills to put a 280 grille in a 240-260. If you really want to move your turn signal lights, and make everything look right, you'd need a 280 front spoiler (so as to cover up the area where your current turn signals are), and cut openings in your 260 grille. Then you could fabricate 280 turn signals with brackets to fit in your opening. That is alot of work.

If you look at my 280, I used a 240 spoiler with 240 turn signals, and just capped off the 280 turn signals in the grille. Much MUCH easier than doing the opposite.

In my opion, the 240 turn signals look better than the 280 in-grille turn signals.

OR, maybe a late 260 grille with turn signals will bolt right on. You'd have to ask someone who has a late 260 setup that way (Datsun did weird stuff on the 260's... )
