When I did this job on my '88, the foam flaps were starting to disintegrate. So I wouldn't buy a used pair that was over 8-10 yrs old.
I can attest that the job is much easier with the throttle body removed, and if you have someone to pull on the air conditioner condenser body for you. If you re-do it to put the flaps in, I'll bet you can do it in 4 hrs with less hassle.
Unless you have a very honest mechanic, think how easy it is to damage those flaps and how you'd be arguing with the mechanic now about why you're getting too much heat, and he's saying it isn't his fault, and how would you know what really happened? IMO, there's nothing like doing it yourself to know exactly what happened.
