Default AU With BA Interior

Hi Just wondering if anyone has put a BA interior into a AU?
I have a AU wagon with a TE50 interior at the moment, the back seat was the only thing that had to be played with, but i was wondering if the BA interior would fit in without the headaches??
If so how easy does it go, im not so worried about the front seat tracks, but how does the back seat line up? and will the door trims fit in the front and back as they are the same shape doors but not sure if there is issues with the different shape dashboard??

Any Info appreciated cheers.

Anything is possible. EA2BA had a BA interior in his EA.
With mods it can be done.

I made hybrid rails a mix of AU and BA rails to make them go in, Welding and grinding is needed.
