My 74 doesn’t look like those. Must be a later model year change.

I am making a listing of all changes, there are more than I thought

Real OEM puts that as 9/74. Never thought about it except being told Jadegrun is a ‘75 color, but did late US 74 cars come w ‘75 bits, even though there were no US ‘75 cars?

E9 handle covers in all production years as far as i know where metal "chrome", plastic black one's with chrome stripe are from E3/E12

I don’t think there any 75 bits and Jadegrun does appear to be a 75 color, the ones I have are all late 74 coupes.

I have now seen several 74 coupes with these later handles
Because it's much easier & cheaper to find E3/E12 handle than E9. Also chrome E9 handles after years have tendency to become matt, "rusty" green, so owners could replaced them.
