| For the most part, yes. There are quite a few things that changed though. Dash bezel, switch panel, knee kick panel below steering column, plastic trim around door handles. What did you want to swap? |

Some birds come with grey dash plastics (think passanger side where the glove box would go) and some got the black stuff.  |

| yeah cause my interior is kinda trashed right now, the dash pad is cracked and where its supposted to be connected in the front corners its not. and while i have that apart i could try adn fix my heading which only come out the top vents not the ones in the front of the dash. i have worn the carpet through so its just the mesh stuff with no material in it the headliner is starting to fall apart and some of the plastics have had the screws pulled threw them so they rattle like hell. |

To change your HEADING turn your steering wheel.
If you meant to type HEATER, but was in too big of a hurry to actually read what you typed, make sure the vacume line under the hood is hooked up. Without vacume our cars default to the defrost setting. The vacume line will be around the heater box under the hood.

| If the underhood line is connected, pull the heater controls out of the dash. The line can come undone at that end as well, although the under-hood problem is more common. |

Mine was actually not even the line itself, but the control unit was leaking. Never heard of anyone else with that problem.  |

| Takes about a minute to fix, man. Just open the hood and look for the small T in the vacuum line coming back from the intake on the passenger side (assuming you have TPI). |

| Shouldn't be too different, right Tony? If in doubt, look for the vacuum line/emissions diagram under the hood, and find the line marked HVAC. |
