RedNeckZ Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Depending on what year your 260Z is. Early model were done with 240Z Parts - had the thin bumpers on it. Later model were the start of the 280Z model parts - had the big bumpers on it. So if you have the late model 260Z, you will have to cut some metal to get the taillights to fit. But I liked the 280Z taillights over those of the 240Z. Good Luck, Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midnightmoonlight Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Nope.. early 260 have 280 type taillight. You would have to cut and weld to make the 260 work on the 240 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gb20 Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Could you just swap out the whole tail light panel? That sounds easier than moddifying the 240 one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvillarreal Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 not available the 260z rear panel, i need to modify the 240z. any knows anyone that make this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnightmoonlight Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 cut one out of a parts car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvillarreal Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 in my country is difficult to find a datsun z, maybe impossible. the only way is to modify the 240z panel or go with a stock 240z taillights, but i need a pair in good shape, but of course with amber in turn signal. thanks.

Lunar240z Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 they make "euro tail lights" which have the amber. i believe either classic datsun or msa has them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvillarreal Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 Yes i know that they have, but i think is a copy not oem, any knows the quality or the copy? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANDYBLUE2+2 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I've seen a couple 240s with the Euro Amber style tailights from MSA and I gotta say, I'd love to have em for my 260. There probably IMO better then original. Good Luck swapping if you do it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
