I need another trunk lid. Might be able to get one off of a 73 RR......are they the same as 72?Especially the outside appearance and the mounting as well. I am getting mixed answers at Moparts.

The 71 trunk lid had the cut outs on the under side for a Go wing 72-74 did not :beer:

73/4 has larger key hole other than that they look and mount the same except for the 71-early 72 wing cut out but those aren't hard to do.
