Has anyone put a Jag X-Type dash in a Contour? Curious to see pics and find out how difficult the swap is.

The Tour and the X-Type are pretty much the same size, correct? Or is it the S-Type? I am new to this Ford thing, just trying to clarify.

the lines of the dash would not come together very well. You would think that the mondeo and contour would be a like so much, but as so many have found out, the head lights, tail lights, fender, hood, bumpers, dash, sail panels. they all are so small in size difference that things dont line up and make it either ugly or impossible to install. but good luck man.

That is very funny and does not surprise me in the least!
Does anyone know how similar the cars really are? I am curious if the dash and door dimensions are close?
