if its a 85 gxl id be a bit cautious, im nto sure how familiar you are with the rx7 but the gxl was a model of a secodn gen rx7 and the secodn gen was only made between 86-91. the 1st gen is from 79-85 and did not have a "gxl" model for that year. althoguh there was a GSL

GX
I have a 1982 Mazda RX-7 GX. The GX came with two little round badges[one for each side] positioned midway down the roof pillar behind each door window[fancy English eh?]The GX and GSL are identical in all other respects[ referring to additional GX badging]. GX=Canadian
GSL=United states
I hope everybody understands what I mean
On a further note I might add ,those badges look butt ugly and deserve removal for aesthetic/cosmetic purposes in my opinion.
