Question for 87 88 TC owners and 88 Sport/Xr7 owners Reply #2 – September 08, 2007, 01:37:32 AM The 87 Sport would have a digital dash.... I'm interested in the 88 cars with the buttstuffog dash. I'm curious to know if the cars in question came optioned as I ask.. if so that would mean there are more dash harnesses than I had previously thought. Quote Selected

Question for 87 88 TC owners and 88 Sport/Xr7 owners Reply #7 – September 08, 2007, 10:07:21 AM I'm assuming the only way to get an '88 XR-7 without system sentry was to get one with a full digital dash then.It makes sense since the system sentry displays basically the same information that the digi dash does.

Carmen does that dash harness out of that 87 tc have the plug for the system sentry.?There were no plugs or harnesses behind that panel except the little blue wire (and its ground) that clips onto the cig lighter and a bulb with holder to clip onto same.Quote from: TurboCoupe50;175152Possibly it was optional in CA, but I've never seen a 87-88 TC without it(that wasn't butchered)... All the ones I owned had it...That is definitely a possibility - Canadian cars had A/C optional, so it's not a stretch to think Systems Sentry may have been as well. My parts TC was pretty basic - it had the power stuff that was standard equipment in 87-88 TC's (windows/locks/driver's seat/mirrors), premium sound w/o EQ, and auto climate control, but not much - if anything - else. It actually had fewer options than my 87 Sport had. Quote Selected
