                    The IM looks like the K8.

                    Can you post more pics with how the dash fits the door panel? That's the only reason I haven't put an MX3 dash in mine yet, I don't know how the dash/panel fitment will be.

                        dan, as promised, here are the pics. u have to customize the housing aircond if u want to fit ur dash. anything else is just fits the same(if i remembered correctly). as i said b4, the dash fits to near perfection, u have to carefully cuts the front of the dash. so hows ur dash swamp now?
                        whats the diff b/w klze & kf engine?

                                No, I'm still waiting on an MX3 fuel pump and sending unit. Car's been sitting on jack stands for 2 weeks now, but the interior wiring is almost done as well as the complete mx3 center console. I also threw out the Jensen casette player
