ok. IIRC, its more than just swapping wires. But I know its been done, so there shouldnt be any huge surprises there.
very nice setup though, most people cheap out on the actual cosmetics of the thing. I dont think ive ever seen the swap done cleanly (until now, obviously)
still doesnt look quite stock, but I could definately get used to that in my dash
