82-86 vs 91-92 Camaro Spoiler

Is the center section of a Camaro Spoiler the same for the 82-86 & 91 & 92 spoilers? I know th 87-90 had the center stop lamp in them so I know that would be different. But will an 82-86 bolt on a 91-92 and vice-verse?

And for you joker who tells me that the 91-92 Z28 had the high rise spoiler... I know that. I'm talking about the RS for 91-92.

yes.

I prefer the 'long' look of the 87-90 instead of the 'short' spoilers you mentioned.

Long vs short, I do not understand.

Yeah, the 87- 90 spoilers are a bit *deeper* to provide room for the 3rd brake light. If you switch from one spoiler to the other, the end pieces have to be changed too

I believe all spoilers from 82-86 and 91-92 are the same. I'm not 100% positive, but the only reason it would be different was to accomodate the brake lights in 87-90.

The reason I ask is I want to sell a Spoiler I have. It does NOT have the center break lamp and therefore must be from either 82-86 or 91-92. I just want to make sure that it would work for either application, Since I do not know what year it is from.

Thank you for all of your help
