Unless the '84 is a Wolfsburg edition. Also, the lid over the stove is different and has the latch on the opposite side. The forward wall of the sink cabinet is different to accommodate the latch on an '84. The latch that opens the rear seat is different, too. Plain Jane '84 Westies don't have the vinyl covering on the pillars that the '85s have and the wall panels are a little different, though interchangeable. FWIW, the seat belts are different, too, and you can't mix the male portion of an '84 with the female portion of an '85. Mike
