They look fairly identical. Can you get your hands on a 86-89 bezels?
Everything forward of the front door hinges (plus the windshield) is different and non-interchangeable between 84-85 (first generation) and 86-89 (second generation) vans. If you are really serious about getting cornering lights of some kind, you could investigate the non-US markets. Some of those briefly got 1st gen bodies with cornering lights. But the easier way is to just buy a 2nd gen van.
