Corvette Windshield

Does anyone know if you can fit a 1978 corvette windshield on a 1975 vette? They look pretty similar, but i don't want to buy it before knowing for sure.

Thanks for your time!

The Corvette Parts Interchange Manual: 1968 to 1982 says no.
1973-1976 use the same windshield. 1978 - 1982 have a different windshield.

My Corvette Parts and Illustration Catalogue shows 68-72, then 73-77, and finally 78-82. Part numbers are different so there are obvious differences in the three applications.

I'm willing to bet whatever the changes, they aren't much.
