Wasn’t planning on jumping into this thread until I saw that both @StarBear and @drem914 have a silver tag while I have a black tag one month after starbear and 13mo before drem!
I used to think the silver or dark was a date thing, but now I wonder if you got a light or dark tag based on the color of your car?! Attached thumbnail(s) |

BTW - Are there any examples of the sticker you posted in silver? I'm wondering if they were all black. Or silver is the new black. I only go back as far as Netflix. DaveB |

DaveB (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) i'll go back through my files and see if there is a sliver one in what i found. the text layout will be the same as the one on your car or the one i posted. you have got an original sticker on yours already - no worries. they just changed the color of the background for whatever reason depending on the car color or whatever the theory is. they must have done the new sticker layout sometime in late jan 75.
