Arrow Euro '86 951

Does anyone know the differences, if any in a euro model '86 951? Mine is european, I only realized it recently. But my first clue was the DME was not the number that AutoAuthority said it should be before installing the chips. I took the DME out of my wrecked '86 that was the right number. My euro car only has options C02, and 220. The bumper cover does not have the rectangular light in it, it has some surface mounted light that are much smaller than the ones on all the other 951s. That could be from the PO, but I thought it might have been a euro thing too.

I take it everybody elses warning lights on the dash are in english instead of german?

Euro model have different back bumber, no side marker lights.Late models have side blinker lights installed on front fenders (same as euro model Golf II)Front combination light units have fog/driving lights).Warninglights can be either german or english depending on which country of europe car was originally sold.Tecnically cars should be quite similar.On euro models there was necesserily no cat converter until the late models.Air bags were standard on euro models from 1990.
