Should be a direct swap.
The outer grille shell is the same '73-'77.

You could always have a 1973 shell on one side and a 1976 on the other, for that ultra unique... "What the Hell?" ... Look.

Just grab the screws along with the 76-77 shells or be prepared to visit the hardware store for longer ones.
