Steering column cover

I recently changed the instrument panel in my 78 Blazer because I added aftermarket guages, Not sure what year the new one came out of but the lower steering column cover that came out of my 78 wont fit. It is about a half inch to long. The new instrument panel needs one that is slightly less than 9 inches long. The one that came out of my 78 is 9 1/2 inches long. Tried to buy one off of ebay but the guy insisted I was nuts and they are all the same. Does anyone how many different versions there are of theseand what year fits what.

I believe 73-77, 78-80, and 81-91.

Re: Steering column cover

That is what I thought. I will keep looking for a 73-77. I think this bezel came out of a 76. I think that is the short one.
