Default Will 5th gen interior fit in 4th gen?

Sounds kine of like a dumb question but I know that you can swap a 3rd gen to complete 4th gen interior....is it possible to take 5th gen interior and put it in a 4th gen?

Shouldn't be a problem as long as you have the patience to modify the stock rail. But where are you going to get the interior, and it's assumed the interior is going to be pricey as hell-So why wouldn't you spend the money on decent racing inspired seating like Corbeau?

Bear in mind that the 5th gen rides on the Zeta chassis, which is completely different than that of the F platform that the 3rd and 4th gens ride on. The 5th gen is a larger car than the 4th gen...it's possible that it may fit, but probably not without significant modification, if it even goes in at all.

Personally, I don't see it happening, as based off the pictures I've seen, the new Camaro's dash isn't nearly as long as the one in the 4th gens, as, unlike the 4th gen, the 5th gen doesn't have half of its motor tucked underneath the cowl.

As far as the seats go..i assume that they would be a PITA like the GTO seats are to swap into a 4th gen. but i'm sure someone will attempting it in the near future

I wouldnt be worth it.

You MAY be able to hack the dash to fit, and

You MAY be able to hack the console to fit, but

The doors arent gonna work,

Neither are the rear panels, or anything else,

So your interior isnt gonna look better, its gonna look piecemeal...


But HEY, Ive seen plenty of guys do stupid stuff, just to be different.

SO go for it. half the forum will praise you

Has anyone seen the seats in the new Hyundai Genesis Coupe? They look nice. I wonder if they would fit in a 4th gen. They "kind of" have a 5th gen look to them.
