Default 73-74 Storage compartments?

Are the 73-74 rear storage compartments the same as the '68-72's? I'm thinking of using the "oxblood" red carpeting from the 73-74 years and want to get new matching door or door frames. In order to get the oxblood doors, I'd have to order the doors from a '73-74.

Will they fit my '70? I've got 3 rear doors. Are they the same?

Thanks
Len

Never mind, I found it. '68-76 use the same doors.

According to DeWitts webpage, you can get the black carpet for 70-79 so it would seem to me that alll the 3 door compartments are the same. I found out this summer that DeWitts sells these also. Go for it. That color would make for a unique combo in your car.

Yeah, thanks Eddie. I'm thinking of doing the carpet and door panels oxblood and everything else black.

The carpet pieces are the same. In late 1973 model year cars the doors were changed from pressed wood to molded plastic.
