I'm looking at updating the exhaustive post, and want ot touch on this one;

Can anyone confirm when the door lock knobs changed?
I always understood that the correct ones for 1970 F-bodies were a fatter ribbed knob, while by 1973 the skinnier smooth style (used into the 1980's)

1970:


197?(+):


Does anyone know if the lock knobs change for 1971??
