Then the turbo's are easier than the non-turbo's.  They do have different
dashboards after all, the non-turbo's have parcel shelves on both driver &
passenger sides, and the glove box is MUCH larger in the turbo cars.  I'm going
off memory here, whih is vague at best, but I looked before I lept into the
'84, and didn't see any easy way to remove the two centre vent tubes with the
dash still in place...
