Default dashboard swap

Anyone ever seen a mk5 dash in a mk4 escort?
Would it/does it fit?

Just took a mk5 dash out and the idea struck me as mine looks a bit tatty in comparison.

The mk5 dash is one of the ugliest things i have ever seen. if it does fit then i'd rather try the mk6 dash

as nath said, if the mk5 dash fits the so does the mk 6 (i made a conversion guide to fit the mk6 dash into a mk5 a while back).

my mate asked me to fit a mk6 dash into his mk4 cab a while back but we never went any further than that, something i might still try tho.

MK5 Dash is the nicest dash of all the Escort Ford cars.
