Not April.

I believe the 806 in my house is April of 1975. It is a series 1 with gold on the control panel and it does have the tub light lens.

Tub light came with models with the gold splash guard for a limited time; maybe a year at most. The majority of lighted tub models came with the blue-ish silver splash guard. My 1975 HA806 (I forget what month now) has the lighted tub without the timed bleach dispenser. The timed bleach dispenser disappeared sometime in 1973 with the blue-ish silver splash guard 06 models.

Beautiful new set, and congrats on getting them. I can't believe how pristine they are; as if they were brought from the factory. I hope you have lots of fun with them.

Have a good one,
James
