Yes! It is part number 891 they are hard to find at your local auto store,from what I have found, but I did find that Pep Boys carried them and you can also order them from Eckler's, Mid America or Zip they will run you approxametely $9.99 each and Yes! it takes four(all mine were out hence $40 bucks)
I hope this helps. Thanks Matt

Yeah! I know $10 bucks each it kinda hurt, but so goes life. Another member has been able to get some at Auto Zone for $6.99 as stated the ones here where I live, which there are many, did not carry them(sucks I would have rather paid $6.99 each instead like Bad ZR1 did.

Thanks Matt

Back in 91, when I purchased my 87, they were only available from the dealer. $23 each if I recall. Glad they are available in the aftermarket now.
