I never kept real accurate count, but being able to see five
confirmed '88 airbag equipped cars out of 1500 in just my own
junkyarding
You're a little off in your VIN info.
The model year of any vehicle manufactured from 1980 on is the 10th digit of
the 17 digit VIN, counting from the start of the VIN Some examples are:
A=1980,B=81,C=82,D=83,E=84,F=85, G=86, H=87, J=88, K=89, L=90,M= 91.
Note there is no i, o ,q or y in this
are you sure what you were looking at were 88 models. the dash for the 88 and
89 are identical. dash design didnt change until 1990. 3 easy ways to tell an
88 from an 89. the first is look at the build date in the drivers door jamb
on the door itself if its still there or still legible. the 89
Isn't 89 the year they added nose vents too?

Actually, when I look at pre-1990 Daytonas the thing that draws me towards them
is underhood stuff. You should be able to quickly distingush '88 from '89 by a
commonblock or non-commonblock engine. Granted the engines aren't necessarily
original but whoever did the swap would get a rude
the number is actually 1,859 units made with the airbag in the end of 1988
production. this is chryslers official count. or at least what they told me
when
i called them to ask this question a few years ago. i have not seen another
88 turbo airbag or N/A airbag car in my travels to any
I'll be one to question the figures of 1,xxx '88 Daytonas with an airbag. I
would swear that a LOT more than that were made with them. I see them all the
time in the junk yards.
There were not officially available until '89, but they definitely had them
in 1988. No question about it. And
I had an 88 shelby z parts car... we removed the airbag and
popped it using a few feet of wire and a 9v battery and that thing flew!

actually the dodge daytona did have an airbag installed in the steering wheel
in 1988. my 1988 shelby Z with a build date of april 1988 has a factory
installed airbag wheel, and the stock wiring harness is a 1988 airbag harness.
this
car was not modded to have this. its a factory harness

the 1987 and 1988 daytona forward engine compartment harness used a 4 wire

that may be so and you were the lucky one to have that many 1988 daytonas
with this feature since it was pretty odd for the 1988 model run . however the
figure for the amount that were made this way came right from information kept
at chryslers archives. of the total of 66,407 daytonas made in

looks fine to me, although that was a typo, but there were VNTs running
around in 88, albeit prototypes
