What do we know about when the changes from clear switch to black switch, and silver screw to plastic screw took place? Most likely the momentary led and clearswitch was the first of the changes to be made.

Does anyone have a clear switch with plastic screw?

And how do stamped serialnumbers correlate with the above?
Does anyone have a stamped serial with a plastic screw?

It would seem that in the year of 1980, all of these changes had already been made. My OD-1 for example is from 1980 judging by the serial number sticker, and it has the black switch and plastic screw, although you can see remnants from the earlier period since it has the old logo.

The order of these events are still a bit unclear.

1. Momentary LED dissappeared
2. Clear switch was replaced with black switch
3. Silver screw replaced with black screw
4. ink stamped serial replaced with 6 digit serial on sticker

Event 1 and 2 happened very close to each other and so did event 3 and 4 hence there's some doubt. I've seen ink stamped pedals with black screw as well as sticker serial pedals with silver screw but I'm not sure all of them were unmodified.
