thermowax/thermosensor question

i need to replace my thermowax/thermosensor to deal with a high idle problem I've been having. I just need to know if the thermowax/thermosensor is the same for an 88 turbo as it is for an 88 non-turbo. thanks.

The thermowax part is interchangeable,but I seem to recall that the the housing which holds it is different.It is easy to switch anyway--just 2 screws.

the thermowax itself is the same, but like six rotors pointed out, the housings are different. The thermowax and water thermosensor are 2 different animals however. The thermosensor is on the waterpump housing.

So when reolacing the Thermo Wax do you have to reset the Fast Idle Cam or just remove the 2 screws and swap?
