i need help.BAD

i have a 1988 camaro IROC 5.7 but i crashed it and did alot of damage to the frame/mechanicly its still good.

i found a 1991 camaro rs in great shape body wise for $400. the interior is a mess though.the dash is ripped apart and most of the parts are not there.

i want to take my gauge cluster and other parts from the 88 and put them in the 91.

alot of people have said it cant be done. i found an article that said it can be done. https://www.thirdgen.org/gauges

I have no clue and im going insane

if you can help,email me

Here's my Buy the RS and gut it. Transplant "everything" - not to be taken lightly, from your IROC into the RS. The dash probably wont bolt right in. It'll be close but not exact. The upper mounts are different but that my friend are the very least and trivial of things.... You're looking at a total transplant if you want your IROC to live again in the RS body.

Good luck
