Vette(s): 1969 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Just bought it from my uncle who owned it since 1971. Fathom green, green interior. 350/300, T400.

I still need an insturment bezel for my '69. I found one for a '75, the pic looks the same as my '69, what's the difference?  

Thanks,

Matt

According to the mid-america catalog, they sell the 68-76 and one 77-82.  But then, within the 68-76, they have different pricing for 68 by itself, 69-71 & 72-76.  They claim that the 72-76 are in the box; original and they are 20$ less.  They don't mention a difference, but I would think there's one.
 
Looking at pictures (from the ecklers website), it looks like the top part (where the wiper controls are) is a little bit smaller and at a slightly different angle as well as the rectangle len on the left.  It could be due to the picture, but it does look a little different.

You should have a "seat belt warning" button, that the '75 wouldn't have. Paragon
shows 69-71 as interchangable. Maybe this will help.
They have two listed, on with the button(installed, I think), and one without.

This one is Without the button installed. Adams' Apple38599.8904513889
