While at work today I've seen a J reg 4x4 sapphire on Lattice alloys.

Now mines a May 92 J reg so I assumed it would of had Shark tooths from new??

I like both wheels so no real preference but just wondering when the lattice wheels stopped and Shark tooths started or was it an option for a period of time??

Cheers.

just found these on Google....

Back in the day j plates had lattice and k had sharks.
If you have a hooded dash binicle then it's sharks.
Later 4x4 had colour coded rear boot spoliers with no black on the edge.

I see.

I have the later dash in mine, with no seat belt indicator on the speedo.

Seat belt indicator? Don't think I have ever seen that.

Sorry, I ment speedo cluster as a hole unit....between the fuel and temp gauges in the middle the early units had a logo in white, later models didn't.
Later type (taken from google for ref....not sure what it is but has no icon in the middle)


early type with seat belt icon....

I'm sure you know what I mean but pics say it easier.

Never seen that on a cossie.

Ok, i spotted it early on when i was searching for a cossie.

A seller pointed it out as he's swapped the clocks.

Also the red lines on the rev counter...think the early clusters had them and later types don't.(or the other way round?)

Saff Cossie clocks had a C on the rev counter

Never owned a 4x4 so I wouldn't have spotted that.
