Changes in '86 vs. Older Cars?

So, what changes/improvements (like 'em or not), were brought in 1986 to the GTV6, as compared to the early-production GTV6 cars...? This is not a "preference" question, but more of a -what's different- curiosity!

The solid cross-member on the older cars for example - is it bolt-in removable on the ' 86 (as with Milanos?)

How about the plastic side-panels along the doors and sides that I see on some cars - what production years had them? (Seems like the early and late cars did not have them, or did owners add/remove them ad-hoc?)

The seats; when did they go away from the Alfetta seats?

How about shift-linkages - changes?

Final-drive ratios? Did something change along the way?

Any other changes of note?

Brakes? Did the GTV6s ever get the later brakes?

Side-shafts - thick or thin?

Speedometer sender type?
