Default Dashboard conversion

What's up guys! I'm hoping someone might have some info on a 4th gen dashboard conversion. I have a '96 camaro, which I already did an LS1 conversion on, I recently came across a totaled out '98 camaro with complete interior and was thinking on putting the Dash in my '96. Besides for the obvious items dash, gauges, wiring harness, PCM, A pillar covers, center console, is there anything structurally that I need to grab too? Has anyone done this conversion yet? Any unforeseen problems I might come across to get the car working properly? I've searched the forum and haven't found any threads pertaining to this. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Piece of cake use everything out of the donor and it's a direct bolt in.

If the 98 is lower mileage then the 96 check out the HVAC air box real close make sure all of the foam seals on the temp and mode doors are in good condition on the 96. While the dash is out I would put in a brand new gm heater core while you are at it to avoid pulling out for a failed heater core in the future
