I think 1973-1975 will fit.  I wrote this down a long time ago, but....

why won't a 78 bezel fit? you can make a 73-80 fit. I know the wiper switch changed a little bit  but aside from that they should be interchangeable.

well the metal on my dash has been bent and cut so that might have something to do with it but i have not tryed to put my bezel back on yet

The 78 should 'fit', its just some of the holes may different...

well it does fit but not snug see the gaps in between the bezel and the lens and the gap on the wiper switch could the dash pad have anything to do with it

The bezel doen't necessarily fit snug to the lense.  It looks fine to me.  The dash pad needs to come down though...

Cluster has nothing to do with the bezel, all bezels have the same mounting posistion.  The only thing that would be different is the location of the wiper switch and the headlight location.

Got a pic?
