So picked up my parts car today, $400. I'll post pics later.
It's an 89 4 dr, matches mine.
It apears to be the base model, says montero V6 on fender not LS. But it has leather seats, power windows, sunroof, cruise ETC.
Also has grill guard(Manik I think), running boards and taillight guard and tow hitch(already have one). I'll probably just clean all those up and sell them.

I'd like first crack at the taillight guards. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Here's the pics from when I got home. I'll try to get some more in the morning. The whole rig's pretty rough especialy compared to mine which I've done my best to keep in top condition.
I'm going to try to salvage the leather seats, front ones are pretty worn and cracked but rear is good.
Everything in the engine compartment is rusted.

The 89 models we have and that I've seen in the wrecking yards do not show the RS/LS designations. The white Monty with all the doo-dads is clearly an LS with a sunroof, to me...

Good catch!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

So I worked on swapping the doors over today. I'm not done but at least in the back it already what looks like a plug for the central locking, haven't checked the other corners yet but are all monteros pre-wired for central locks?
Will I find a plug for the power windows if I dig down there some more or do I need to wire those myself?

BTW, the leather door panels look alot nicer than the normal ones.
