there is a dark blue dash on ebay which i am watching. it is a facelift dash with the lower glove compartment. it comes with the speedo cover and the airbag cover.

i purchased a carbon horseshoe stereo surround some time ago not realising it was for a facelifted dash and i've tried to sell it to no avail. now i am thinking i could kill 2 birds with 1 stone, buy the dash, fit the stereo surround and gain a glovebox out of it?

the only question i have is, does the facelift dash fit a pre-facelift boxster in terms of mounting holes, airbag lining up etc.

and also has anyone done a dash swap of any kind, and if so, how hard was the swap?
