Switch Stereo Headunit and OEM Gauges

Can I switch the location of the OEM gauges and stereo headunit? And if so...how hard is it?

As mentioned, it's very easy. There's a tutorial somewhere on the site. I was going to tell you to search, but it's likely much quicker for me to find it:

The pics are gone, but the text remains. Good luck.

you may be interested in a HVAC relocation (many people on here build them/for sale) then you can have a 2din headunit

When I did mine I also switched the boost gage to be the closest to the driver side. Looks much better in my opinion because its better positioned for the driver.
