I happened to have an old set of 85 one and the two-loop one is 85/6. But I don't know how S4 are different.

See what you get for letting that poor shark petrify?

The top on is the same as the ones I'm using for my 88, as I'm painting the covers on the S4. I don't know about the bottom two. Ed

85/86 ones are about 2x price of S4 ones. So it's worth figuring out the differences.

Careful there Ed MD!
I just went through this. I have an '87 S4. I got sent those top pictured ones by mistake, They are for an '86! You see the "kink" in the lower left side? Those didn't fit my '87. Had to send 'em back, and I got the ones pictured in the lower pic.

Can't help you with the middle one Heinrich. The top one may be for an '85 as well? No idea....
