Is it possible to put Full VF Maloo Ute interior into a 2008 VE Maloo Ute if so how hard is it or just straight forward??? Aka dash, doorpanels, seats, gauges, cluster

No. No it is not.

Well. At least that’s a no as far as common sense goes. Anything is possible with an unlimited budget though.

Theres no mechanical handbrake lever to start with.

Too many differences electronically, and besides, E series seats are better than Gen F seats.

There’s currently an XB and an XC(?) Falcon being built with the floor plans of a new Mustang and it’s associated interior and an FG(?) floor pan an it’s associated interior. Both cars will be $300k plus show cars once done and no doubt each get a spot in Street Machine.

While the VE and VF seem similar, it’s not until you have them apart that the small differences in how they are screwed together become evident.

Then the electrical systems that operate the VF buttons etc need to be addressed and down the rabbit hole you go.

^ And given that putting XB styling onto a modern Rustang is like making a sharpened stick work with modern electronics, as opposed to mating VF parts with a VE is needing to make two sets of modern (but different) electronics play nicely with each other, the Falcon stuff is probably simpler and hence even cheaper …

PS. @Fu Manchu , as chance would have it I’m currently watching their 180SX video, so had a bit of a giggle at your avatar.

Would be easier to hang VE grills, bumpers and bars on a VF?
