If you're talking the gauge panel section of the dash, yes, they do interchange. You should have no problem swapping your good gauges right onto it, although I have found a few weird models that had different speedo mounting holes. I managed to get one to work anyway, and it wasn't difficult.

The front chromed covers also just pop off with a little judicious prying with a screwdriver, so you can mount the trim from your original panel if you want to keep it stock looking.

If you meant does the entire dashboard swap, I don't think so. I've never tried to install a 120-series dashboard in a PV544, but I did buy a DashMat for a 122 and it was about 3" too long for the PV544. I stripped the edging back and snipped a little off each end, replaced the binding and now I have a great looking cover to protect my padded dash.

Good luck!

Steve
