there isn't much difference between them, the linkage appears to be identical.
i have a mk2 xr2 and i have an erst linkage hung up as a spare and looks identical apart from the mounting plate for the selector.
so would assume the linkage is the same, but the mounting plate would be different as the escort has a wider tunnel.

bolt pattern on the linkages is the same, only difference is the linkage rods, you need the later spec xr2 ones
