    SWB Euro Taillight Markings

    I have a question about SWB euro taillights. Some have a number "K33226" while others have the number "K43235". On some, the -226 pieces tend to look more yellow while the -235 pieces tend to look more orange. What's up with the numbers and colors?

    Just looked at a half dozen of mine and they don't follow that pattern. All over the place. My guess would be differences in fading over time or differences in production runs.

    I have noticed that later units have the orange color, it makes matching lights somewhat difficult. Bosch also went from clear sealant to black at some point.

    Why two different numbers? Are the lens castings slightly different?
