I own a S5 turbo. I love the look of the car, but am not a fan of the interior. Is there any way I could purchase a kit or get any kind of advice on a FD dash swap?

I first noticed it on this video and have wanted to do it ever since:

Thanks to those who reply.

better off with a full custom fiberglass dash if anyone does good glass work by you.

custom fiberglass dash? but wont that cost me way more? how did that dude get the FD dash in there? thats all I want to know.

he has some good fab skills,
guess you would have to buy one, cut and make it fit.

That doesn't really look like an FD dash to me, but what do I know. That guy probably does have good fab skills or deep pockets, nice car though.

its a FD dash its just a bit dark (you can make out the vents and center speaker) and it looks like the cluster may have been swaped out.

hmm so its a custom job. I wonder if I bought a brand new dash and door panels if I could get a custom body shop to fiberglass the ends and fab it to fit. Probably cost and arm and a leg though. lol

prob could spend enough that selling the FC and buying a FD would be a better idea.

****...who needs door panels, lol

I've been thinking about the swap too. I think it's feasible. Maybe I'll measure the FC dash and the FD dash and see what the differences are...

if you do so, please pm me with the info. id really like to know how you do with it. I'm gonna try to get my hands on an FD as well, so i can measure the dash.
