Are 68-70 B-body exterior door handles their own part?

Looking to change my repop exterior door handles on my 69 RR for originals. Wondering if 68-70 A & B-body door handles are the same or different?
 
Just google them and you will find your answer.

I did. That’s why I’m asking because most of the repops advertise as 67-70 abody & 68-70 bbody. Vans, Dante’s Parts, PG classic, OER, Trim parts all say they’re the same.

But YearOne and DMT has them advertised separately and the NOS ones I see are advertised as B-body or A-body.

Well I'm sitting here staring at a 3600 mile '67 A body, a '69 Swinger and two 69/70 B Bodies so took a walk with a spare handle up to all of them and other than the Black buttons on the Swinger... they are all exactly the same. The '67 A body, Formula S, handles... the mounting bosses are thinner than the others.

Now that said, there may very well be differences on how the linkage ball mounts on the back of the button. Common, but not an issue inside the door.
