Default Using 76 parts for 74

I was curious about using an alarm horn from a 76 for the second car horn note in a 74. They look the same but I'm not sure if it would work. Was also wondering if a 76 front bumper support and vacuum reservoir would work in a 74.

Ok, vacuum lines from a 76, would they be better then the ones already in there? I'd think they'd be in the same state as the ones from the 74'.

Thanks

Heck, I have parts from an '81 on my '74 so I don't see why not.
I highly doubt GM spent the time and money to change stuff like that within the years we are talking, but then again we are talking engineers so...

As Dr. McCoy once said, "I know engineers, they just love to change things"

Thats pretty much how I was thinking, the two parts look almost exactly the same but wasn't sure. Thanks.
