Both of those cars are SLOs. I know SLOs came with police options (my 
mom got pulled over by one once! I was in back seat) but I've never seen 
police Gen II SHOs. I'm not saying they don't exist; I'm just saying 
I've never seen one. I'll look for the cooling slot (would the SHO 
fascia have it too?). Her car does also have a top-center mounted 
antenna of some sort on the back window... or what's left of it, anyway. 
The aerial is gone. I've always wondered what it was there for but now 
it makes sense that it would've been for a police radio. No evidence of 
one having been mounted, though. I figured the key would've been like it 
was so cops would only have to have one key to turn all the fleet cars 
on (door keys are still unique, though).
