It's complete custom fabrication. You will have to make your own mounts for everything. Nothing will line up at all. You will need the wiring harness for the new swap. Interchangeability between the new one and the old one will not work. Complete re-wire. Do yourself a solid and do some research on this topic. If it's not the OEM unit you will be spending countless hours doing fab work and not to mention about $10,000 worth of parts. To some it's worth it. To the average DIY guy in his garage not so much.
