Do T/C's and XR7's have the same frt cover? March 25, 2009, 10:37:01 AM In this dumb state you are suppossed to have a frt license plate and I cant bring myself to putting holes in a perfectly good cover. I have a frt cover from a 85 T/C that a guy gave me that has the holes in it already and since I am going to repaint the XR-7(86) anyways will swap it if it will work. Hopefully someone will know.

They will interchange.If you want to do a nice mod/upgrade, find a Fox Mustang (LX) or Tempo/Topaz front plate holder. They're plastic and, with a little tpuppies of extra plastic tabs on the back, fit perfectly on the 1983-86 bumper cover. Quote Selected
