Yes there is a difference between the 90 - 92 models and the earlier models. Particularly in the area of how they mount at the firewall. Another thing is the difference between the automatic transmission steering colums and the manual transmission steering columns.
. out of curiosity what is the differance between a manual and auto steering colum?

Don't forget about the air bag on '90-'92
And the key has a special button for the manual to be able to remove the key (auto has it on the shifter).
