Looks similar, but really not exactly the same.  There are not a lot
of common body/interior parts between your 5KCS and the 4K/80/90
series.  The 100/200 up to 1991 have the same body as your car (except
the 200 20VT which has flared fenders) so exterior panels are common,
but the interior went through major redesign for '89.
