    Yep, but your 92 is a Gen II, not a Gen I. Gen I Daks have the 5 bolt
pattern, Gen II and Gen III have the 6 bolt.

  (Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what was used in '91? '91 is
widely considered to be the Gen II body style, but still had the Gen I
drivetrain. Did the 6 on 4.5 bolt pattern happen in '91 or '92?)
