OEM DE1 Window Louver Question

I picked up a set of DE1 louvers a few weeks ago DIRT CHEAP off a guy locally, but a few of the middle panels have some minor dents. I do think they can be fixed, however I think it'll require some labor. I've also come across another set, for a very good price, with no dents, BUT...it's a 91/92 model with the brake light.

Question. ....are the middle louver panels interchangeable from front to back? Meaning if my 2nd louver is bent, can I put the 4th louver panel in place of it? I have 3 panels with dents, and this set I found has 6 good panels. If they interchange, I'm good. If the 3rd panel will ONLY fit the 3rd panel, etc. etc., this becomes far more risky. Yes, I could just test this out tonight at home, but rare as these are, I'd love to make a deal today if I can find a quick answer.

All of the center pieces are the same length. Around 37".

Awesome. Thank you. That's what I figured, but wasn't sure. I told the guy I'd buy 'em, but he's got someone in front of me already. Listed for 10 hours. They don't last long!

Nice Iroc by the way. Looks very similar to my '89.
