how do you tell a 1991 turbo hood from a 1991 SE hood 900

I found a 1991 turbo 940 with a good hood. The book says it will fit my son's 1992 740 unless the 940 is an SE. How can I tell the difference, assuming I can't rely upon the fact that the trunk lid says "turbo" but does not say SE. Is it that the SE has "concealed wipers" instead of wipers that come up through a cowl which is about 6 inches wide and runs from side to side in front of the windshield? If that isn't it, how can I tell whether this 940 wreck is an SE or not.

    SE Hood is same as a 760/pre-1995 960 hood. The easiest way to tell is that the portion of the hood adjacent to the base of the windshield is swept up somewhat to partially hide the windshield wipers andm unlike the 740/plain 940 hoods, there is no separate, metal ventilated cowl (the 760/940S4/early model 960 has a plastic cowl. Suggest you look at the pics on this site.

    Good luck!
