Almost all of the electronic components and wiring harnesses from the Prius V will be reused, with judicious splicing where wires need to be lengthened, or Firebird external light needs to be connected. I plan to adapt the Prius V speedometer into the Firebird dash. I even plan to replace the gas door emblem with the rear side marker from a '69 Firebird to be used as a defacto center brake light. :-)
