    Has anyone put a 93-97 dashboard into a 89-92?

    I really think that I want to try this. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Why, pray tell? For the passenger airbag?

    BTW, the 1.8 debuted as a '94, not a '93. Hate to see you buy '93 parts
    and be disappointed.

    Huh? Other than the passenger side airbag, I don't get it, the dashes
    are identical. I would think there are some additional sensors needed
    for the passenger side airbag if that was your goal and I don't think it
    would be a safe installation regardless.

    No, actually they are not identical, though they certainly are similar, the
    center console is slighlty different and the top of the dash has a slightly
    different shape (from my '97 and my buddies '90). the fit of an aftermarket
    DIN headunit is different.

    I would think there are some additional sensors needed

    Lanny, Your correct '94.

    Reasons for the change would be...

    a cracked dashboard on my 91,
    I like the style of the new dash,
    I can re-wire any necessary connections (no problem),
    and I really don't believe
    that I would connect the passenger airbag (but could).

    I am gathering that no one has tried this before.

    So, wish me luck.
    I will document everything.
