1680 Service Bezel Insert

Does anyone know when the RSC starting replacing 1680 inserts with the thin font (stick) service inserts? I am trying to determine how long they have been around. Thanks.

In case anyone was interested, I found a thread on the forum that references 1985 as the approximate introduction of the thin font service insert. Interesting thread.

Thanks for finding that info, there are so many different Sub inserts around it's really hard to keep track!
