Ok the VN dash is about 4cm too wide to bolt directly in, the later dashes can be made to fit though, I have seen one somewhere but cant remember where.

Scott, I'm not sure if we're thinking of the same car but I've got a magazine at home somewhere from the mid-late '90s with a VS dash modified to fit inside an orange-red VB. The bodyshell itself had been given the 6 window treatment as well so it looks identical to a VK (why not use a VK first? who knows). The owner was rather coy about the modifications and reskinning required to make the dash fit but it apparently wasn't easy. So it can be done, but like anything it all depends on how much you want to pay.
