Default Dating RTR Rank slides

I got this little lot today. Is there any way of dating when they would have been worn and by what RTR battalions?

I know that the Lt Col Slide is current issue.

Thanks, Bill

No 4 with green tape is 3 RTR worn on black coveralls until the demise of 3 RTR in 1992

Thanks very much for the info.

Would the 2 1 & 2 RTR slides have been worn at the same time or is one older than the other?
