the same as the reflectors on an '83 surround?

Trying to piece something together here :)

It looks like it from the picture, but wondering if anyone has first hand experience:

sloped quads:

Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Thanks all!

The leading edge of the reflector is vertical with the flat surrounds, and looks like it's angled to match the grille in the sloped bezels.

if you could check, I'd appreciate it! Just to be sure, but I think you're all correct in that they're both different.

Was trying to pull a move, but don't think it's going to work out like I wanted it to.

anyone know?

I'd really like to make this work, as the prices are right.

Any help is much appreciated, all!

However, he "massaged" them to work with his faux SportQ look (which also included an aftermarket Chebby truck grille IIRC) so I don't know how well they'd fit in more or less stock form.
