My 1985 90 didn't have any of these fitted when I steipped it down:

Should it have had them or was this a later design. I assume it's a security thing? Is it recommended to retro fit them although they are blinkin' expensive! I reckon I could make my own.

My 1985 90 does have them, although they could have been fitted by a PO. I think they are to stop you catching clothes on the striker, although I have caught and torn trousers and jackets on the shroud!

And to stop the seat belt getting caught there and getting damaged enough to be an MOT fail.Not fitted on older models at least.
