The 2014 Standard (black) model has black springs, hence the different part number. When a model is imported to the US, and a part is different from world specs, the part number changes. US uses the last 3 numbers of 305, 306, etc. to designate US-specific, (possibly heavier springs). You'll see it on turn signal and taillight assemblies and lenses, mirrors, and other DOT certified stuff too.
