I thought they were all the same also. Can you post a pic of the difference?

the turn signal switch for a 71-72 tilt column is different than a non-tilt 67-72. At least there are 2 different part numbers according to LMC pg 155.

I don't know what the difference is, but I'd think if you splice the old connector in to the new switch matching the wire colors you should be fine?
