Re: 73-74 bezel vs 75 and newer

'73-'74 bezels were specific to those two years and the biggest difference is the wiper switch and headlight switch area. Here is a picture of my '74 bezel. The wiper switch is also specific to those years, the bezel has a backlit window for the Wiper/Washer words where newer bezels do not. The '73/74 bezel has a cone shaped raised area around the headlight switch to conceal the nut that holds the switch in place. Later models used a different nut for the headlight switch and an open hole in the bezel. I'll try and dig up a picture of the later bezels for a better comparison. A '75 and up bezel will technically work it just isn't correct for the 73/74 model years.
