What year did sport seats change?

When did exactly did sport seats change from tombstone with the lever to the later style with the wheel? See different info from different sources.

PET seems to indicate the early-style Sport seats with the lever, round tilt button & external hinge were use up until -80 MY - eg 1979 diagram 808-10, which shows that seat and says "-80"

Good luck finding them in any condition at all, let alone for a sane price, as they seem to have only got rarer and more spendy since I first wanted a set. Said "meh" on a few - that now would have you doing a happy dance if you got them for 4x, 5x the price..

Think comfort seats switched to SC-style a little earlier, like 1978 - eg 78 drawing 808-00 shows the wheel adjuster.

I had thought both comfort and sport switched at the same time, but was corrected - and PET certainly seems to bear that out.
