I have a 1990 GTA recently purchased. When I look for parts, I am having a hard time finding what I want for a 1990. Now do the parts from an 87-89 fit my car? Thank you,

Ken

Some yes, some no. Be more specific on which parts & we can help out a little better.

Your Drivetrain & interior is the same as a 91-92

Cosmetically the exterior its the same as a 1987 - 1989.

ok?

Thank you very much. Just wanted to be pointed in the right direction. If anything specific comes up, then I'll ask again.

Re: I know this may sound stupid but...

Many of the parts will interchange from 82-92, and some even from camaro (especially engine/drivetrain stuff). Lots of the odds-and-ends interior parts like seat belts, dash pad, interior plastic side panels, headliner, etc, are pretty much the same, 82-92. Some of the other parts, like the center console, shifter, dash parts (except digital dash) are the same from 85-92 firebirds.
