I have a 67 but confused on my instrument bezel year. Help

Ok I have a 67 that's kind of a Frankenstein. pretty sure it has a newer wire harness because it has the side marker lamp wire but no side markers. I want to buy a new complete bezel with 8000 rpm tack and vacuum gauge. My truck has the oil pressure gauge and the ammeter gauge but no choke cable hole. My question is how can I tell if I need to buy a 67-68 kit or 69-72 dash kit? Is the wiring different in the two??? thanks guys

I think I but a newer type bezel in my 68. The difference in the two is placement of the wiper switch [I think] or at least it was on mine. I think with the lack of choke you may have already had a newer bezel type put in sometime ago. Jim

I believe it's a newer one also. Just trying to see if I would need to rewire anything

So the cluster wires were a plug and go from the 67-68 to 69-72. In other words you didn't have to change any pin outs. Just extend wiper wires

Ok guys I found my answer and what tipped me off is hugger saying he had to extend the wiper wires. I finally found a good picture of a 67-68 dash and found wipers are on the left side. Mine are on the right side so I will need the 69-72 dash. Thanks again guys
