forgetting the a/c vs non-a/c, the engine turned dash panels are easiest to group as such:
70-72 (separate light/wiper callout holes)
73-74 (combined light/wiper callout hole)
75-79 (addition of RTS badge above column for 1975)
80-81 (signal cutout changed from triangle to circle for 1980)
I personally hate the look of the decals;
The decals to me just look cheap, and I'd suggest that if you want to go that route, put the decal on a 1973-1979 non-TA dash insert - because the metal/finish behind the decal makes no matter;
The decal will cover the woodgrain, and cover the RTS badge holes - I am pretty sure that the these are the cheapest dash inserts to buy.
Putting a decal on a non-TA dash inserts leaves you to restore a donor engine turned insert, or sell it to someone else who will.
