Default Trans Am interior panels

Is it possible to swap 2002 pontiac ws6 door panels into my 1998 z28? Are the interior plastics interchangeable? I know this is a noob question

Done it many years ago. My car was a race car so didn't bother with getting the windows and switches wired up. there was also a small piece on the door itself that needed to be cutoff to allow the panel to sit flush

I’m in the process of swapping a TA and door panels into my Camaro. There’s a few threads on here.

it can be done. my 94 camaro has TA panels. NONE of the screw holes line up. The panels will drop in place as long as your clips are good. You will need all the bezel's and the lock tab (with red on it) from a T/A, camaro is too wide. In hindsight, I wish I would have used the camaro 2000-2002 but didn't find any. These were always expensive to get.

you will also have to wire something on the mirror controls, forget what it was but shbox has it on his site.

The bigger issue is finding a pair in good condition. The factory door panels had a flaw that caused them to crack.
