Are the motherboards for all 15" Retina MacBooks interchangeable?

I have a 2012 15" Retina Macbook and it may need a new board.

Can I buy any used board from the 2012, early 2013 or late 2013 models? Or must I stick to only 2012 Retina boards?

Thanks!

You can usually go to the part and look down to where it lists "Compatibility and see what machines that logic board will work with. See this one: MacBook Pro 15" Retina (Mid 2012) 2.3 GHz Logic Board

Thanks!

So it seems that 2012 and early 2013 models are essentially the same machine :)
