Datsun 1200 grilles vary between Coupe and Sedan. The Sedans used a stainless steel grille, while Coupes used a sporty plastic type. Wagons and early utes used the sedan grille, while newer utes use a coupe-like plastic grille. In Japan, the sedan grille changed for 1972.

Mounting

Each grile type has unique mounting variation.

A plastic grill will not bolt in place of a sedan grille and vice-versa.
