Thanks Rev. I figured that was pretty much it. I'd heard somewhere
(can't remember where) something about swapping interior components
between
the 3rd & 4th generations. The comment that stuck and prompted my e-mail
was "but you have to swap the whole dash and console". It kinda made me
start wondering later, "Hey, did GM tool the bodies the same and just
install different interior???"
Best Regards,
Drink
