Default Door Panel Question

Can someone tell me the difference between a 1970 and a 1969 door panel?

I have a 69 ... my painter has a couple of brand new 1970 panels.... which I'm sure he would sell them to me for a good price.

Looking at the catalogs it appears the 69 is a unique panel ... however I would like to know the difference.

If the difference is minor and the panels fit I would consider purchasing them.

Thanks for your help.

The 69 panels have the " Comfortweave" insert as a separate add- on piece. See first pic below. The 70 and later standard interior door panels have the "Comfortweave" pattern molded in the panel. See second pic below.
Hope this helps

If you decide not to go with the 70 panels, please let me know as I am looking for a set =)
