I dont think so, I believe the metal underneath is setup differently. I would set it in, you may be able to get it with little modifications.

yes it will fit.  Regardless of what any manufacturer thinks, the shell of the 73-87's ARE EXACTLY the same.
The dash will physically fit on there, but they are not the same from, so the fit at the bezel will be different.
