1BAD94CUTLASS Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 I want to swap my entire interior in my '94 4 door Cutlass Supreme to the '95-'96 style,4 door also. I know that there are many differences looks wise,but will everything bolt right in? I am mainly concerned with the dash. Will everything plug into the instrument cluster and heater controls? Anything else that would be a stumbling point? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Mark Quote
Psych0matt Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Hard, but can be done. I know there are some wiring issues, as well as the climate controls, but I think with the exception of a few bolts, it'll physically bolt in and be solid. Quote
Q-Ball Posted December 15, 2007 Report Posted December 15, 2007 I did this with my grand prix, but I just left the 88-93 controls in. Quote
1BAD94CUTLASS Posted December 15, 2007 Author Report Posted December 15, 2007 Thanks for the replies guys. I just might try to find a good donor car for an interior swap. I like the '95-'96 interior much better than the '94-down. Thanks. Mark Quote
Crazy K Posted December 15, 2007 Report Posted December 15, 2007 I had considered doing this for a long time... but have decided.... sell the 94 and fix the donor instead. a complete donor would be great, the issues you would tackle are: you should use ALL the wiring harness from the donor from the c100 connector back. ****see below*** You will have to add brackets for the top of the B pilar seatbelts. You would have to physically remove all vestigages of the old seatbelts from the door, and use the inner metal window trim from the 95+ and expect to have to drill and tap holes in the body to add bolts for the dash where none are currently. oh... If you WANT to keep your car running on on the OBD FYITA 1.5 system your donor, if you use the interior wiring, must be a 95. If you WANT to CONVERT to OBD 2, you should use ALL wiring and the PCM from a 96! Quote
1BAD94CUTLASS Posted December 18, 2007 Author Report Posted December 18, 2007 Well,that sounds like a lot more work than I want to get into! I didn't realize it would be quite that involved. Maybe I'll just try to find a '94 down donor with charcoal interior instead. I really hate the light blue interior my car currently has. Thanks for the input. Mark Quote
rockfangd Posted December 19, 2007 Report Posted December 19, 2007 yeah i have to say i am glad that both of my cars have dark interior, my cutlass is charcoal grey, and my caddy is Black leather Quote
Q-Ball Posted December 19, 2007 Report Posted December 19, 2007 I swapped everything to charcoal, except my dash. I have a charcoal dash to put in though, but its still the 88-93 one. I used the 94-96 door panels mainly for the extra cup holders in the door, and they were leather. So basically I swapped Headliner, Door panels, Carpet, Seats, rear deck and it was all good. Quote
Psych0matt Posted December 19, 2007 Report Posted December 19, 2007 so you have the 93 down dash, but basically everything else is 94+? do you have a pic of that? The GP im picking up this weekend will have the new interior, so I may go balls out and do an entire swap... I'd hate to lose the aq9s though Quote
1BAD94CUTLASS Posted December 19, 2007 Author Report Posted December 19, 2007 I might do some mixing and matching myself. I called my local JY and they said they have a few CS's. I'll have to go out there Friday to see what they have. Maybe I'll just swap the carpet,headliner and seats. I guess it all depends on what I find and how much they want for it. Wish me luck!
