Hey guys I just wanted to know if anyone knows if the dimensions of a 98+ frontier dashboard are the same as the one in the 90's hardbody. I have a 90 HB and I'm looking to upgrade the dash . . . If I cant swap in a frontier one I'll prolly swap in one from a 94+ HB. Has anyone ever done any of these swaps? Any pics? Thanks in advnace . . .

The trucks are extremely close, dimensionally, and use almost identical frames, interchangeable tailgates, etc. I'd bet that with a little work you could swap the new dash in.

That said, I like the dashboard in the '94-97 HBs better than the '98-01 Frontiers, and MUCH better than the 02-04 frontiers.

Awesome, i thought they were pretty close . . . Thanks for the quick response Desert!

I think I might like the 94-97 dash a bit better too, Im still undecided, but they're hard to find in good condition . . . Atleast around here. I've already found a few frontiers with decent dashes at the salvage yards . . .

Does anyone know where I can buy dash's online?
