A4 purchase counseling

[Pedro Faria]

How do i tell the difference between pre 98.5 and post 98.5

is it something in the dash and interior?
anything on the outside? such as rear emblem placement, because i have 
noticed that, but i'm not sure what year has what?

or like bmw
change the position and look the rear tail lights

Thanks

Pedro
