Default interior swap

has anyone swapped themselves or at least know what exactly is involved in changing an 84-89 interior to a 90+ interior? what problems would be encountered, etc...

not looking for speculation on potential problems, i can do plenty of that myself. i'm hoping for facts from experience. thanks!

Never have done it. You will have problems with the dash shape, guages, and door panels..... I would think. Perhaps someone has tackled this and can help. There was a thread about this a few months ago and many members suggested it not be attempted.

Sorry, I also searched in the C4 Tech/Perf archives for you and didn't find it. I'll search the C4 Gen archives.

EDIT: Found these in C4 Gen archives. Hope it helps in your decision.
