Default Need thermostat info for 2003 Spectra

I am going to replace my upper and lower radiator hose and the thermostat and gasket. I've called various auto parts dealers and also Kia and they have different info on the OEM temperature of the thermostat. The Kia parts person couldn't tell me the temperature rating on the Kia brand thermostat(#2550023010) Some say that 192 degree is OEM, some say 180 degree is OEM. Anyone know for sure what temp to get????? Thanks, Gary

I've got the Kia thermostat in stock, it's staped 82C right on it.
