So only a dash from a 4 door will work? |  |  | | 11-25-2009, 08:53 AM | #32 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Gilbert Posts: 621 |
yes azn, only sedan dash's will fit our tis but even then you have alot of electrical work to deal with as mentioned earlier, so you better be good or know someone really good with electrical work. __________________

OH yea a 4 door sedan, I learned that the hard way =) I am half way there with my collecting dash parts, I just need the lower parts now and im good to go! Im just excited im getting some stuff done to the car in the mean time. I just installed H & R Race Springs which look pretty sick! =) | | | | | 11-25-2009, 05:23 PM | #34 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Central NJ Posts: 2,440 |

im going to be attempting this soon as well to match my m swap does anyone have a wiring diagram or writeup on how to make the actual dash controls work? | | | | | 12-19-2009, 05:55 AM | #38 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: North Bay, Northern California Posts: 251 |
I'm sorry to be redundent but I have not been able to definitively confirm this...
an e36 sedan dash will fit right into the ti assuming you've got the appropriate years...
I think 95 is when they went OBDII and air bags... | | | | | 12-19-2009, 05:58 AM | #39 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 |
95 was still OBDI, not sure when they started with the airbags but my 95 has them | | | | | 12-19-2009, 06:24 AM | #40 | | Member Join Date: Sep 2008 Location: reading Posts: 56 |

95 OBD1 and the Passenger airbag was an Option.

(TI Speedo goes to 140, //M speedo goes to 160) Therefore if you use the TI guts with the //M face and needles, both the speedo and tach will read incorrectly. Am I missing something? | | | | | |
