I think somebody tried it before and said that there was a lot of cutting and shaping to do, that is why I didn't replace my cracked-up GT-S dash with a sedan dash.

Modification: Changing something to what you thought it should have been from the start!
Modding is what I do best. If I can't use fire, a hammer, and a sawzall then it ain't custom. And a one of a kind ride is what I'm after Anyway the dash I'm looking at is in pretty bad shape and I was thinking about getting rid of the sun damaged padding on the top and getting creative with some bondo and some sand paper. It looks like the bottom half of the dash and the center console is the same as the 4dr but if it's not the car I'm raping for parts still has all that junk still in it. Thanks to all who are kind enough to post what they know.

Reason: Added some content
Cut, bend, fiberglass, bondo, sand, paint. Find the spot you want to put it, make sure there is enough room behind it, cut the hole to put it in and install. Fill in the old spot with something cool like a gps unit or something. A little involved but worth it if you want it. Anything can be done with the right amount of time, money, and willingness.
