What year did the doors have the safty beam added?

I thought the safety beam was added in '74?

My '72 had some bars bolted in that were less substantial than the rectangular profiled bars from the factory that you see in the '74-'76 cars, but I don't know if the doors were original to the car. From what I've seen from various parts cars, I'd have to guess '74. From what I've heard, if you order a door from BMW, you will get a reinforced door, though.
