LE1 rear brakes?

I have full disc brakes all sides. For a long while now (too long) my rear calipers have not been engaging. I'm trying to replace them, but I'm a bit unsure if I have LE1 calipers in the rear or not. Was looking for the VIN decoder on the site but could not find it - what are some other ways I can see if my GTA was outfitted with this option?

Re: LE1 rear brakes?

Your 88 should have the standand iron calipers with 10.5 rotors. The following link will show the 1LE's (alum calipers with 11.7 rotors), which started in 89.
