Study the website carefully. Calculate the prefixes for the 1981 and 1982 
model years according to the table on the website.

K .. D would be the appropriate month prefixes for the 1981 model year, 
but if both the 1981 and 1982 model years used DA as a year prefix, there 
would be some prefixes that appeared twice, in the 1981 model year and 
the 1982 model year.

Which suggests to me that there's been a slip up somewhere.
