There are small brackets that the fog lights connect to.  They are available as reproductions for abot $50 or so.  The tail light panels are being reproduced, but I don't know anything about the quality, or who might send them to Canada.

There are two different brackets, one for the 70 'Cuda and one for the '71 Cuda.

That being said, I wanna ask another question.  Which year bracket do you think would fit better on a '70 Challenger?  I've been thinking about retro fitting these onto my car.   ???

I don't know but I think shelbydogg has driving lights/fog lights on his '70 Challenger.  He may have some insight on this.

They mount between the bumper and the bumper bracket, I believe.

Here's the two different brackets.

1970:


1971:


I was wondering if anyone who has restored both Challengers and Cudas could tell which bracket would be a better fit?

Isn't the front bumper the same for 70 and 71 cudas?
Then if so, is the different brackets because the mouth clearance is more on a 70?

On my 70, I didnt install the bumper filler support, so the bracket bolted on with the bumper bolt and the other to the bumper bracket
