All late model coupe/4door kick panels are the same (a/c or no), except
for being cast in colors appertaining to the year/color choice. The only
difference is the convertable kick panels (other than the same
year/color choice), due to the body's added reinforcement, making it
impossible to install it WITH a cast-in vent stack. Thus the vent stack
is a separate piece.

BTW if you are having to reinstall a coupe/4door kick panel and don't
want to have the mess posed by the "gobs of goo" gray putty that the
factory used, there is a tech tip in the CORSA tech guide that tells you
how to use a convertable vent stack. It involves cutting the cast-in
stack off the coupe/4door kick panel.
