Can a 2013 dashboard be installed in a 2011?

 

At a high level, the answer is no. They're completely different designs and you couldn't easily swap the vents, speedometer, stereo, etc. You'd have to also swap the center console and stereo section, and likely the glovebox area as well. If you're looking to swap absolutely everything from the windshield to the floor....maybe? You're going to be doing some serious figuring out though about how to wire up the new stereo, airbags and everything else. It's doubtful they have the same wiring and connectors. I have no idea if the mounting points for the dashboard or anything else are close, either.

 

Ill see what ill decide to do. I didnt know it was that complexed since the body of the 11’ is the same as the 13’.. id figure it’ll be ok to do.. thank you

 

2013 Is an X166 GL. 2011 is an X164. Different bodies.

 

So on a US version GL a 2013 and a 2011 are two different cars (with some similar parts). The former is the x166 and the latter is the x164 and the bodies, interiors are different. Some mechanical components were carried over from the x164 into the x166, but highly doubtful a whole dash will fit.

are you in some other part of the world where the x164 carried over into 2013 model year? If so you’re talking about putting a dash from a neeeer x164 into another and that should work. But why?
