interior question

Hey,
I'm thinking about swapping out the interior in my 1987 5.0 LX and putting in interior from another car that looks bettter. Right now my interior is faded and some pieces don't look the best. I was thking of swapping out everything but the dash, but might end up doing that. Haven't taken a whole dash out, but have taken things around it out. Is it really hard to swap it out? Could I get the interior out of any LX or GT from 1987-1993? There's people selling cars for parts that have good interiors in them and interiors all ready ripped out of cars in the Want AD and such pretty much every week. I want to start looking for something so that hopefully around christmas time when I will have time off from school I can swap it, but need to know exactly what I can use before I start. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Its not that hard, things break on the uninstall though so keep that in mind, but its not a bad job to do.. the dash is a b*tch let me tell you.. but doable.
