Do the 74 front spoiler have a different mount?

Do the 74's front spoiler mount differently than the 75-78's?
I have 2 different kinds.

The complicated one on the left is '74

and getting it on and off is just a ton of fun because those extra tabs are also the radiator support mounts - you have to hold the radiator in place and position the spoiler and start the nuts at both sides, all at once.

Dearly though I love the '74.... The serviceability improvements in the later years are improvements.
 
Guys

On the 74 spoiler I just cut out a slot in the metal on the top tab in front of the bolt hole so it will slide in with the radiator bolts in place but loose. Once in I tighten it all up, works fine.

Hey - neat! Next time I have a spoiler off.... Out comes the saw.
