Certainly black hats became standard in 1695.
I am relying on an ebook called "The Spanish Army of the Wars of the League of Augsburg" by Giancarlo Boeri, Jose Luis Mirecki and Jose Palau for most of the uniforms. However the cut of the coat in that ebook is the cut of 1698 for the infantry. This ebook sometimes differs from the plates of the Count of Clonard in the mid 19th century, which tend to show lapels or the lining of the coat turned back at the front. I am trying to reconcile these sources. My personal opinion is that there was probably a transition between the coats with the lapels early in the war to more French-style justacucorps later in the war. But the issue is one I am still considering. Another issue is that in the Ospreys ebook "The Spanish tercios", it also showsa grenadier wearing a broad brimmed hat, whereas "The Spanish Army of the Wars of the League of Augsburg" mentions the grenadiers wearing the mitre cap of the kind in the picture posted above from the War of the Spanish Succession.
