For the Resto Guys:

A question that I don't recall seeing on Moparts, or anywhere else on the web is this:

What should a car with Y05, Y07, and Y09 have that makes them different from one another.

Please elaborate what body style.

Can't say specifically but I imagine it has to do with emission, safety and structural laws in different countries. The factory ain't about to put anything on a car that isn't required by law.

Y codes are generally accounting codes for the most part. In this case, they just show where the cars sale was to take place and / or where the original order originated from. As an example, cars ordered from overseas by US Servicemen were labeled as Y09 cars, even though they were picked up in the states. (Look for Y11 on the broadcast sheet)

Some packages were available with cars built for Canada that were not available on cars intended for the US & some options were available for export cars that actually were shipped overseas, but nothing was different based on just the Y05, 07 or 09 codes themselves as far as options go.
