Dash swap question

Hey guys, I'm looking to replace my dash in my pickup, and I was thinking about maybe putting in a dash from an early 3rd gen. I did some searching and didn't find much with the search function, but i figured maybe somebody has done it since those were posted. So I was wondering, would it be quite a hassle to do it that way, what would I all have to do? Since its not a CR would I have to change the wiring quite a bit and would it be a pain just to get it to fit correctly? Would it even be worth it to go through the trouble? Im not bound and determined to do it this way but I think it would look good and be unique. Thanks for the input
