B post caps

Can anyone tell me why there are two different designs of the B post cap? Here is a picture of the two types showing the wide and slim designs. Is the difference due to the metal top covers, GT style interiors or early or late production? Thanks in advance, Jeff

Jeff,

The slimmer ones are off the Sv MKIA/II Tiger, they ammended the design so that the door top doesnt catch the B post and take the paint off... the SV's are much better design, the S3/IV style are nicer looking.

Thanks Michael, that cleared it up quick, nice and simple. I really do like the wider style cap though. Maybe a set will find their way onto my Tiger, just to add another small personal touch to my car. Jeff
