What are the 68 only parts

[kempy]

If all goes to plan, I shall be collecting a 1968 Westfalia SO-67 later today.

Is there a thread on here detailing the unique one year parts for 68's, or can someone help provide a list.

I know items such as door locks, rear view mirror, brake reservoir etc....are unique, however, a comprehensive list would enable me to determine what is missing or needs replacing over time.

Thanks
