Mid/later '80's Firebirds had that option up until the airbags in '90-92, right? Then starting in '90 they were gone until '93??
Did any Camaros have wheel mounted controls..Berlinetta?

No camaros, only GTA's possibly an option on a T/A, 88 & 89 ONLY

The Berlinetta's last year was 1986, and I have never seen or heard of one.

Although it does not show it in dealer books, I believe you could have special ordered a Formula with just about everything you could get on a T/A but without the ground FX. I have a GM dealer promo picture with the "GTA"/Ultima style seats in a Formula for example.

I have never seen a Formula with the Digital dash or the steering wheel controls, although it does not mean it was not available one way shape or form under the right circumstances...
