Firebird Interior in 85 IROC

You guys are always talking about putting a 4th gen interior in 3rdgen cars. I think it's hella cool 2. However, i was wandering how hard it would be to put a firebird digital dash in my IROC, or did camaro's ever come with a digital dash ?? Also, what other mods are on the market for interiors ?

The Berlinettas had digital dashes in the Camaros.

I thought about putting the Trans Am digital dash into a camaro. Unless you had a complete donor car, I wouldn't attempt it. I think it could be made to look real good though. If I ever do it (it's a very real possibility) I'm going to make all new panels from black ABS plastic to keep the camaro style interior theme with the black plastic and torques screws. I'm also going to change the display to say "Camaro" instead of "Pontiac". A ton of work, but hopefully someday I'll do it.
