I've got an '87 5kqw and a '90 200qw.  The cargo covers are exactly 
the same.  While $400 is ridiculous, I'd say that it's the spring 
loaded rods that are the unique component.  I swapped some of them to 
put the straightest ones into the 200.

BTW, the 5kqw is for sale. See 
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/rickh/fs_5ktqw.htm for 
pictures and details.

Regards,
Rick
