Re: help!
It is possible you have a different motor. Open the hood and look at the front of the motor. On the passenger side of the motor where it connects to the transmission, you should see a stamped letter followed by numbers and possibly another letter and a number. Example. B18A1, D16Z6. Or even a stamp like B18B. Take a look and post back here. We can tell you what years your motors for.

Re: help!
lower left of this pic shows a flat spot on the engine block. You will see on this one its a B18C and then a bunch of numbers under it. The upper one is the engine code.

Re: help!
Some parts are the same and some are different. Some models came with diffenerent engines, trim packages, etc. Let say your looking for a front fender for a 2 door dx. All 2 door fenders in these years will work. A 4 dr. fender wont. All dx's are the same for those years. Understand or did I just do a great job of creating more confusion?
