It is possible.
Pretty much anything is, right?

Get the complete dash harness as well as the engine harness to start.
Then take a look at putting all the OBD1 donor car's dash components in your car.
A full dash swap might sound appealing at this point, but the door panels are the challenge.
If you want to keep your dash components, then you have a lot of wiring to do.
A lot... like why did you even bother.
You will also need to figure in wiring to taillights and things you don't swap out like the ignition, turn signal stalk, and wiper stalk.

I was just doing research that's all. All the wiring in my car is hacked up.

No need for a obd1 dash harness, to much of a headache... just get a another unhacked obd0 dash harness and install it. If you are planning on doing any engine swap and want to convert it to obd1 visit rywire.com and purchase a harness from them.

That's the problem, its hard to find underdash harness. But I'll be on the look out for one. & I've looked into RyWire harnesses they are pretty expensive but I heard the quality is top notch.
