What are the difference's between a 69 and a 70 charger gauge cluster?

Rolling_Thunder

The 69 gauge cluster has the hazard switch mounted on it. The 1970 has this switch mounted on the steering column

The 69 has the clock standard, by 70 it was optional.  The headlight switch on the 69 operates a vacuum switch as well in order to open the headlight doors but you can't really see that part.  They're pretty close to being the same.

Is it, I thought they both had that "camera case" style?

Yeah, the 68 has ribs but are the 69 and 70 the same?

69 and 70 same texture, no vertical ribs like 68
