Another 4th gen dash swap... pics inside.

I recently replaced my stock dash with a 02 camaro dash. This is one of the many mods that I have completed and/or intend to complete to this car. I am not going to use a stock cluster, as I am going to purchase a plate so that Autometer or Speedhut gauges can be used. I will also be getting a center console later on. I also need to finish the A pillars as well. I will be deploying in the next 2 days, so my work on the Camaro is done until I come home on leave. I do have pics of this at the following link.

The HVAC is completely functional. Temp cable and level select included.

This process took me about 2 weeks, but I didnt work everyday on it, nor did I work constantly when I did work on it. I think it looks very good so far. When I get back from Iraq, I will complete it with the dash pad, center console and A pillars.

Enjoy the pics!! and thanks for looking...

Looks great although it is more than I would want to take on. All the best as you serve our country in Iraq. Stay Safe and God Bless!

Wow, looks like a tight fit for your Gauges
I used Publisher to mock up my gauges and it took me about 3 weeks to plan it all
Mind you, I put mine in a '78 Pickup, but thought you'd like to see the results
Just a piece of ABS, nothing fancy, but maybe it'll help you keep in mind the fact that the Bezels are bigger than the stated Gauge sizes
