I have a 2002 LT Trailblazer that I'm looking to take the dash out of and put it into my 2004 LS. The LT is a complete donor for auto climate, DIC cluster, and steering wheel with controls.
I know that swapping from manual to auto climate is a pain in the a$$... but would it be more feasible to swap out the entire dashboard? I figure if I could tare down the 02 dash carefully, I can get it to a point where its just a matter of bolting it back in, but in the 04. I know that I will need some specific items that are not in the dash, ambient temp sensor in the grill (I already have this as I replaced my rearview mirror with a temp/compass unit some years ago) and the driver side sensor in the B pillar next to the drivers head. I already have this removed from the 02.
I'm hoping that some have looked into this and have some information they can share. Maybe if someone is local and wants to give me a hand one day??? LOL
