they use a l8 yes but it has the closed loop function in it, easiest well to tell is it should have a green sticker on the case as the non cat had a red sticker
cam covers were different colours, green being late models for cats, and red for non cats

I had a radient red, L reg one last year, sold it on her to a guy in Guernsey for £9k. Low mileage and minty mint............... radient red is the rariest of factory colours, 4 on a 2wd and 12 on 4wd (all last spec so, elec roof, colour spoiler, air con, mine had heated leather too, which is rarer than hen's teath)
