'89 is a little newer than my '86 so there are some changes. That being said, you probably need to replace the crash sensor (mounted to the tranny hump directly below the stereo) as they are, at least for '86, a one time use item. You also need to replace the ETR's, also probably both sides. The ETR's are the emergency tensioner for the seat belt, requires completely replacing the belt retractor assemblies in the "B" pillar. To access the crash sensor you'll have to basically gut the center console.
