93 interior panels different than 94/95?
Well I understand the dash panels are different and that the 94/95's had a different texture/coating to prevent the peeling problem the 93's had. What I'm unsure of is if the rest of the panels throught the interior are the same or are different. Like the rear hatch/cargo divider for example. Would one from a 94/95 blend in fine on a 93(same texture)? ...or how about the rear plactics that go around the interior of the hatch? Talking about the black panels here if it matters. Thanks in advance for any help.

I swapped a 94 dash into my 93, and several of the panels were different. I can't remember which ones, but I think most of them were the trim panels on the passenger side----mostly because of the different dash design associated with the air bag.
I believe that the trim (including the hatch divider) in the rear of the vehicle is the same as I swapped most of those out for 94/95 as well. I don't remember any of the texture/color being different, but then again I replaced everything at once.
As far as fit and function, the easiest way to find out for sure would be to go to a dealer and see if the base/suffix part numbers match up between the two years----most of the parts guys are usually pretty knowledgeable about deciphering the numbers and being able to tell you if you might have a problem.

The only problem I can think of would be from trying to mix and match some of the 93 to 94/95 panels. A full 95 interior should fit in a 93 and vice versa.
I think that everything that connects directly to the chassis has no problem---it's mostly the panels that are secured to other panels.
