Swap dashes- AUIII falcon sr to fairmont dash

[fordlover]

Hi I'm looking on doing a dash swap from the Low Series AUIII dash to the High series out of a Fairmont/fairlane...

I would like some specific guidance as to what items I will be require to start collecting for the conversion (my shopping list)
and would be great also If you could suggest how I go about swapping the bits?
Appreciate the help In advance

I dont know much on the subject but i do know with the climate control, you will need (i believe) the left hand side mirror from a fairmont/lane as it reads the temperature or whatever.

There are a fair few threads, especially in some build threads on swapping dashes that would be helpful to you. worth the search.

If you could search any helpful build threads and post them up here, that would be great!

so as far as i have read on this thread I will be needing
-the dash (complete with climate controls module & fascia)
-BEM (sorry for the silly question but what is a BEM?)
-heater box
-ambiant air sensor (near horn)
what else? is someone able to fill me in?
(I guess once I have started do some real/descent mods such as the above I will start a build thread, that should include all of this but at the moment I just need something to help start me off)

Thats only a B Series on thing, AU/ELs etc. have the senser behind the front bar (wiring was allready there for me)

The BEM will (or should) be included in the dash, the ambient air senser is the thing mentioned above.
Start your build thread now, slot of people like watching progress photos etc.

you should find a fair bit of info in my build thread,
