old skool to new skool switches

A quick question. Does anyone know on what year savage they changed from the older style starter and light switches to the newer one. The reason I ask is I am looking at a 95 savage but I see it has the old style switches then from the 98 I used to have. I just want to make sure I'm getting a 90's savage rather then an 80's. I know ill tell right away when I go to test it if it has 4 or 5 gears just wanted to know ahead of time. Also can the the switches be replaced by the newer style without any issues?

Check the VIN stamped into the steering head. Digit 10 is the Year code
10-Year Code
86(G), 87(H), 88(J), 89(K), 90(L), 91(M), 92(N), 93(P), 94(R),
95(S), 96(T), 97(V), 98(W), 99(X), 00(Y), 01(1), 02(2), 03(3),
04(4), 05(5), 06(6), 07(7), 08(8 ), 09(9)
There should also be a sticker on the steering head giving the month and year of manufacture, but there are some who "desticker" their bikes. Be aware that a bike made in one year may actually be the next model year.

Eschew obfuscation.
