    Ford fg dash conversion for Gq

    Im going to be putting a non turbo barra in my GQ and was wondering if anyone knows how i can go about transplanting dash and media console aswell. Ive seen a couple vids on YouTube so ive seen that it can be done. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Yeah I've seen it done once many many years ago. The guy actually got the full dash in. Not just the components. Dssh profiles and all. Was pretty sweet.

    We are going back 10 years though i reckon and before this forum even existed. I reckon hia thread would be lone gone from the other forum.

    Be keen for you to start a thread here of your journey though. Good luck mate.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    I took a bit of searching but this guy did something with the dash conversion, so I hope it helps you. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...ash+conversion
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.
