can anyone here answer these questions:

Does the door cover properly line up with the 2nd gen dashboard?
Does the a/c work just as well as stock? I notice the 2nd gen vents are more angled, and the exit vents in the side of the dash are Diamond shaped, while the vent on the 1st gen is circulor

That shifter is actually from the second gen LS. I installed one into my car. Its not easy I can tell you that much. Bolting it on isnt that bad but you need to make a custom braket to hook up the linkage and the wiring is a real pain in the ***. On top of that you will need to make a custom surrounding cover. Here are a few pics from mine

love the car hate the red!!

Just too much for me... I'm a big fan of keep it low key. the wald rims, the clean body is just that but the interior all red like that is just too much for me.
