Default door handle interchange

I realize that they are different but does anyone know if the door handles from an 88 will fit my 90?
Or...... Does anyone have a drivers side(left hand) outer door handle for sale?

Thanks in advance

I have installed 1989, or 90 handles on my '82, without any major fuss.
I believe the only major difference was arm going to power lock solenoid. I used arms and both solenoids from '82. The other difference was key rotation, in later models key turns only 90 degrees, before solenoid does the rest of work, when on my '82 I used to turn key 180 degrees each way.

i don't know what years are which but just to add some info...i have an 88 and bought a driver side handle assuming they were all the same. I came to find that i have "square" handles, the underside that you press is flat and one of the years have rounded ones. It seems to work fine, i switched the lock out, but its kind of out of adjustment and difficult opening at times.
