There hasnt been that much change.

ADR 3/03 for seats commenced in July 2008. That changed the seat height requirements to be 50mm higher than it was before.

ADR 5/05 for seat belt anchors also effects cars after July 2008 so this could impact some kits that have test results for anchors. Mind you that only effects NSW cause we are the only state that requires full testing (not even low volume manufactures have to do full testing).

ADR10/02 came out early last year with the requirements for head form testing on the steering wheel (ie collapsable boss). But from what i hear NSW is the only state enforcing it. There are no after market steering wheel and boss combinations tested to this standard including MOMO, Issota, Autotecnica, and SAAS. Also as all new cars have airbags they comply with ADR69 which makes ADR 10/02 not required.

At the same time there have been ADRs removed such glare reduction ADR and wiper ADR which was merged into general safety.
