Yes it's been done a fair bit in the USA and pretty sure Roderic has done it too.

not something i would ever want to do. i actually prefer the simpler NA interior. but everybody has different tastes i guess.

if you want to dress up yr interior there are cheaper / easier ways to do it. like changing the door trim to a different colour or something like that. i'm in the middle of this now, should have some pics up today.

Sorry missed your earlier post....

Yeh you can do it, just takes a bit of time and patience.
Most of the things line up if you want to do a dash swap, just a bit of rewiring for the A/C and hazard lights. But its well worth the effort :)
