As Saana88 said, the factory '87 stereo is not compatible with the later CD players. You can tell the '87 unit from the later ones as the '87 has no knob on the head unit, and the LEDs on the eq are multicolor.
That said, the wiring in the car is identical, so if you can source a later head unit, too you're good to go. You'll just need to fish all the cables and such (one big wiring harness and two thick DIN harnesses IIRC) out of the dash, and get the correc two DIN harnesses back in there.
That's a lot of work for a really old stereo IMHO, but whatever floats your boat!
