Nobody makes a repop 73-74 bezel do they? I've given up hope trying to find one Looks like the windshield wiper area is different, and the headlight knob surround is raised on the 73-74.

I think you are right on. The 73-74 wiper switch is about 1/2" or so higher than the 75-80 trucks, and is lit by a fiber optic cable. The 75-77 wiper switch is bigger and is lit by a bulb. You have to cut the hole out and move the wiper switch down to use a later bezel.
