Anything from mid '74 is going to have the intrusion bar.
Doors are same same. Only difference is the trim dowels on LX UC but easy to remove.
If you are fitting the LH trims you can source new rivet type dowels from RS.

Passenger cars manufactured from 1st Jan 1977 had to have side intrusion bars. Found it on the net. Looked like an old document from that time.

Correct, ADR 29 - Stiffness of Doors. Effective on and from the 01/01/1977.

Yeah, my '76 sedan has no intrusion bars - I always thought they came much later, so 1977 onwards sounds spot-on.
