    I've got a manual that shows where they are supposed to go, you can go to:

    I'm not sure of the holes as I never removed any from a pre 73. The pre 73 ones I don't believe have the mounting screw through the top of the indicator so it may be different.  :dunno:  Hopefully someone else will know.

    Yes, 73/4 are larger with screw thru the top.

    I was curious if you could simply change em out and put older ones on the 73/4.
