FD dash/interior in an FC?
I was musing with my friend Joe last weekend about the aged look of my interior; he suggested we try a swap.

The measurements are right; the FD dash is slightly smaller but it's probably possible.

Has anyone else ever tried this? Pics?

Cory Simpson changed out his dash with one of a late model 300zx. You could troubleshoot with him.

EDIT: I think a Supra Dash would be better. In my opinion.
