Default mkiv supra dash , console and door panels in sc400

so i have been thinking alot about this becouse i dont like the factory layout of the sc platform i hate the way the dash looks becouse it is simply ugly as hell. my question is does anyone know if it would be possible for the mkiv supra dash to fit in the sc platform. i want the supra setup becouse it is more driver oriented i feel like. i like the fact that the dash is angled towards driver ..

if i can find the info needed i would like to swap the dash out for the mkiv supra as well as door panels and center console so i have the feel of a mkiv supra interior while being in the sc platform plus i have yet to find any actual information about this conversion im assuming becouse noone has ever done it . so please post opinions ! i would love to do this conversion just need info on this!

The supra dash if I am not mistaken is quite a bit smaller in length than the sc400...
Might be easier to just buy a MKIV

Without being 100% sure, its a gamble either way. 2 to 3 inchses is alot when your placing a dash in. unless u want to cut a perfectly good MKIV dash and fiberglass it...... :/

Yea I hear that I'm trying to find someone with a mkiv dash so I can measure it and compare it to the sc dash my main question is about wiring as well as what I would need to do for door panels to work becouse it would be a unique interior

You'd have to make or modify the door panels obviously. Why not just make a new super cool 1992-style angled center console for the dash you have?

I could make a custom. Center console but why not just do the conversion since noone else has done it yet . The point of the conversion is for originality
