Dashboard 3rd to 4th TA Swap ?'s

I was wondering how hard it would be to change a whole dash board out from a 83 TA to one outta a 93-02 TA. If anyone has done anything like this how different are the guage hook ups and could I use the old Dash as a template and fabracate the new one on top of the old one? I can't find a place to find custom fab dashes if anyone knows one, and like all TA's that year the dash in it is cracked in 20 thousand places so need to pull it anyway.

Too bad you don't live closer, there is a 2000 Firebird in great condition at a local junkyard. Engine and all. I actually just got my manual shifterplate for my 2002 center console...

U can find them on ebay all the time, they are a lil expensive but normally in good condition or call around to local junkyards. Also in AutoTrader u can find parts cars that will have the whole set wiring harnash and all.
