Yes, they fit. You'll need a non-turbo style grille (junkyard: $10, don't
pay more than $20, these fit all non-turbo 5K 1984 and up, so they are NOT
in short supply), and you'll have to loosen the clamps on the pipe from the
intercooler to the metering head, push it inward maybe 3/8", and
re-tighten. You may have to relocate the jump-start post.

It is snug in there, but it all fits together.

And you're gonna LOVE the lights!!!!
