you will need new/custom dash mounts you can make with backstraps and balsa for proper fit.. new wire and electrical connections too

correct me if i am wrong, but the 85 dash has a diff. form than the 88 and up dashes... its close.. we did a swap out in a 83 fox body.. changed everything to make look like a 93.. getting the dash in place is easy but the screw pattern will need altered.. if you already have the new dash go for it..
