Hey there,

The 95 does have a vented opti, and you can get one for your 94.
I know there are a few extra parts you will need to buy to make
it work, but yes, it would be a good upgrade if you can do it.

As far as a website w/ instructions, you can go to Brent Franker's
site. I can't remember the exact website, maybe someone can
chime in. But he has all that stuff there. And like 2-3 different ways to do some installs. Very helpful.

As far as the dealer, mine was going to charge me their wholesale price w/ an added 10%. But I ended up getting a new one for about $75 from a friend in TX. You can also contact Jason Cromer. He sells a lot of F-body parts, and has about the best prices on stuff like that.

Good luck, and sorry I couldn't help you any better w/ the addys.
Someone will chime in though.

Go for the vented Opti!

Thanks for the info Ill look into the Brent franker site. I might have an opti lined up for cheaper than what the dealer would charge.

Jason Cromer will get you a vented opti for $209 plus shipping. Great deal IMO.
