like i said, i've done it. the only problem you might have is that the
88-89's have a differently shaped console to the 90-91's, but other than
that, mine were direct substitutions with no further wiring required.
if you want to preserve your original mileage, swapping your old speedo
into the new console is easy too. everything works fine!
