I understand that their is a very slight difference between the buckets for 69/70 VS 71/72. I know that the replacement foam is listed separately and apparently the 69/70 seat is slightly taller. I've been told that a 71/72 cover will not fit quite properly on a 69/70 bucket and vise versa.

The reason I ask is that if I purcahse 69/70 buckets for my 72 and I cover them with 71/72 patterned covers that are made to fit 69/70 buckets (houndstooth), is there a visibble difference once installed?
