I've never done a dry fit, but when I pulled one for my buddy at a salvage yard a few years ago, I remember being shaped differently so I'm going to lean toward no, if memory serves.

Re: dashboards

That would be a no. I believe a dash out of an 82-84 firebird will fit any 3rd gen camaro, but in 85 the dash changed in the birds and from 85-92 they will be too narrow on each end.

Hopefully this helps.
