If you look at the Bentley wiring diagrams the OX counter box is present
on the 88/89 diagram page 97.125, and then missing on the 90+ diagram
page 97.207 though the wiring for it is still present. Likewise the OX
dash led on the very next page in both cases, present on the 88/89
diagram, gone on the 90+.

What year or vin# the OX counter and LED were dropped? Don't know but
guessing 88 had it and 89+ didn't.
