Based on Atkins Website, I would say they're different;

Which 85? GSL-SE possibly different, GSL or base not much different from earlier years. Small differences in the dizzy but the main components (dizzy, ignitors, coils, wires and plugs) are all very similar.

Ignore me, I missed the "key ignition part".

the electrical part of the ignition switches goes like this:

BA14-66-151A is 81-82 up to vin 642149
BA24-66-155A is 82-83 vin 642150 up
FA54-66-151 is 84-85

locks follow the switches
