Should be the same as 87-88 as long as you don't have vent windows.

You are correct,,, although i did not want to mention that as its been an issue with ventshade even back when I was looking 10 years ago for my 84.

You simply buy a heat gun and re-shape it to your contour.
it will come out perfect.
you heat up the center bend and the distance you are pulling is so great, you will gain the 1/2'' or so you are after.
