![]() Would it be possible to swap a '90-'93 dash into my '84? I'm talking the whole thing...gauges, dash...everything. I just think it'd be a great mod for a unique look. I know I've seen it done, but I haven't a clue how. This also kinda fits into my post about where to put gauges in my car. I figure, aside from justlooking cool, I would be able to use a gauge cage and whatnot. Anybody?

![]() Why don't you just make a custom dash, and choose your own gauges?

![]() I've certainly considered that...and it'll be my last resort if swapping in another dash proves to be more than I can handle. I just figured that I'd like to keep the stock look as much as I can.

![]() I would imagine it would be ALOT harder to swap entire dashes. I like the look of Autometer's phantom gauges also.
