This is great! If anyone is running PHP on the backend, you can embed a little block to always render out the last x-amount of years like so:

<?php
    $date = (int) date('Y');
    $numYears = 100;
    for ($i=$date; $i >= $date - $numYears; $i--) {
        echo "<option value=\"$i\">$i</option>";
    }
?>

Nice man, reall good addition. What about for the Days too though?
<option selected disabled>Day</option>
<?php
for ($i=1; $i <= 31; $i++) {
echo "<option value=\"$i\">$i</option>";
}
?>
