65 Custom Sport vs Grand Prix Grille

Wondering if a 65 Parisienne Custom Sport grille bezel is the same as a 65 Grand Prix. Might the Grand Prix have an extra mounting hole for the fog light?

I only have the Cdn book and took these numbers from it:

9779160 (right) and 9779161 (left ) grille bezel, 5739086 grille radiator

Might anyone be able to check these vs the American book?

They are the same with the only difference being the black finned backing is cut out on the Canadian model. If you look close, you can see the markings where it would be.

So I take it that the park lights/fog lights on the GP are mounted to the finned backing and not the main grille bezel?

yep, and you probably know that the back sections are left and right too, although they will fit opposing sides... I know this because for some reason, I have two of one side.
