It wouldn't be too difficult from a standpoint of rerouting the air from the vents but you would need to pull the entire dash out to do so meaning lots of work. One bad thing about this car is you can't move the climate control as the vent selection is direct drive mechanical meaning there are two little tubes if you will coming out from behind the climate control ***** and going right into the vent selector in the dash. I'd love to do something like that for you but I don't see it happening unless you were going to vay-kay for a week in MN. Duluth is pretty in the fall.

Wish I could be of more help.
Thanks for the reply, sorry it took me so long to respond. I have been trying to make up my mind just how far I want to take this dash redesign, and you gave me
as usual a lot of good information. I am slowly putting together a spare console and dash. This is so I can do most of the modifications without the pressure of time and having my car torn apart. I still need to find both dash end pieces, the side vents and the gauge surround in black. If you run into any spares, I am in the market.
