If the revese lights are vrtical then it pre face lift. You can make th tech 2 kit fit but it looks wrong on a pre face lift.

88 convertible is a pre facelift. You can fit a Tech II kit with very little modification Mr Lee has posted a good fitting guide- click on the link in my sig and you will see how it looks.
