I just bought some panels for my 89 Hatch for the inside of the hatch i was wondering if anyone had a pic of inside the hatch of an 89 to make sure these are the right ones....

Thanks!!

 

If your talking about the quarter panels then check the shock cover. They should be rectangular. The 90-93 panels had circles. If its the rear panels then I think they're all the same from at least 87-93.

 

dammit the ones i just bought are circular....will they still fit snuggly in place?? cause the ones i have in now dont fit right and were put together poorly and also cracked...

 

I think they'll fit. Only thing I know for sure that wont fit is the cover shade. Just take a ruler and check everything before you start taking everything out. I just painted ours and it was chore getting everything out. Besure to make your seats so everything goes back in properly.

 

The reason they were changed in 1990 is becuase, that was the year when the three point seltbelts were added in the rear. It was also the first year for te airbag, and, i believe the only year without an armrest. the panles should still fit, but you may have the hole for the shoulder portion of the three point belts. Next Time, the way to tell if it is a 87-89 or and 90-93 is to check and see if it has an airbag. Or you could just check the stickers on the doors and door jambs

 

THe 90-93 does have an armrest there is just not armrest pads like the fronts.

 

Early '90 models did not have the console armrest. I know because it's one of the reasons I bought an '89 instead of a '90. Didn't want an airbag and they didn't offer tilt steering were the main reaons.

 

What is the cover shade? and did u mean i should take out my seats??

 

Thats the peice that rolls out to cover things in the back. To get the quarter panels out you have to take the rear seat out. Thats the hardest part of the whole process.

 

I put a complete 93 cobra interior in my 89 Gt and everything fit right and I used the extra seat belt hole for an extra speaker on each side, I attatched a photo for you

 

haha awesome idea man thanks!!

 

Just early models? So thats why ive seen some that had it. (Even one guy said it was factory) My 1990 is number 8565, im guessing that was early enough not to have a armrest....
