Default RS500 lower fin

I have what looks to me like an RS500 lower fin. It has written on it
TYP;0195,and then KBA35529,and is dated october 86.
Is this the real deal?

if the cut out for the upper fin leg,looks factory and not cut out with a knife,it must be original.i did have the 2.0s and rs500, both together,they are different,the end profile that sits on the rear 1/4 is different.

It doesn't have a cutout on it. I wasn't aware they had a cutout.
Cheers for the reply.

If it hasn't got a proper cut out then its for a Sierra 2.0is and not a 500!

This is what the cut out should look like on a genuine 500 one!

Well ebay was the plan, i might put it on anyway,i'm sure someone would buy it for their 3dr and cut it themselves.
I recently sold a uncracked mk3 escort ghia dash for £210.
I have 2 sierra electric sunroofs complete.How much are they worth?
