Type 81 and 85 classifications

[Pedro Faria]

ok i agree with you all i just have another point to make and it will be my 
last

as far as the euro lights for the 4k, i'm talking about the h4-h1 combo 
lights

there are typ 81 that have the glass flat |  corresponds to 1984 and prior
then there are the typ 85 that have the glass stanted / corresponds to 
1985-1987
the flatness and slantness also corresponds to the different grilles
and also their shape
type 81 is slats all the way accross, if you remove rings its only stlats
type 85 has slats and rings outline, if you remove rings there will still be 
the outline

that is how i saw the differences before.

so take it as you may

Thanks
Pedro
