    You gotta chage the door trims as well becaue of the way the air con vents wrap around on the dash to the doors...

    It can be done but as 1991_Vn2nV says you'll need to change door trims as well.

    Also look forward to spending a lot of time rewiring things (windscreen wiper switch, etc) to get it all working

    Looks good once it's done though...

    Waste of time mate, why dont you just go out and buy a vr-vs if you like them that much, and besides wiring the whole thing would be the biggest headache, and half way through it, you would be like what was i thinking. Its not even worth paying someone to do it, the price would be ridiculous and finding someone to do it would just be hassle, anyway all the best if you decide to do it.

    Yeah its been done, pretty sure somone on here has done it... Heard a few stories about it, apparently the wiring is the most time consuming and not everything bolts straight up, sorry couldn't be of more help.
    Cheers, Gaz

    a while back i wanted o do it. there is a few bolts that need to be put i think to get i fitted then it is just the wireing which is apparently the hard bit i'll find my thread.

    Interior swap?

    that might give you some help. in this forum wayno55 and hemipoweredvk have done it that i know of.
