Interior dash trim and dog house
I currently have a 94 GEN one Astrovan that is in generally good condition, yet needing a little bit of love in a few places. I was curious if the interior dash trim and dog house mount for the GEN two Astro could fit in the GEN one. If anyone has any insight on this matter it would be much appreciated.

Care to elaborate at all? What all would have to be switched out besides the trim pieces itself? I imagine I would also have to change the doghouse but is there something I’m missing?Not without a lot of work.
What exactly are you trying to replace? All of the dash and trim pieces up front?
Yeah that’s what I was thinking about.What exactly are you trying to replace? All of the dash and trim pieces up front?
The dashes mount differently. I haven't had the dash off my 95 yet so this is just what I've read. The gen1 dash mounts along the windshield. The gen2 dash mounts to the main crossbar then the crossbar is mounted to the body. Then you would have to figure out all the electronics. I don't think the gen1 cluster would mount right and fit properly in the dash of the 2nd gen. Now you're looking at sensor swaps and/or speedo healer type setups to get the gen2 to display correctly.
Personally I don't think it would be worth the effort, but I also prefer the older interior.

It would be a nightmare to do IMO. Could it could be done with enough time/effort/money, sure, but why?
