123 pedal cluster into 126 car

Can anybody say specifically what is needed to do this? I am thinking about converting my sd to stick and would need a clutch pedal containing cluster.

I was told its a direct bolt in... and when you look at the 123 peddle cluster it is only supported by the 4 bolts around the brake master cylinder. So I don't see why it would not be a direct bolt in.

I think there is also a hook on the top toward the driver for the bracket, that would be the only snag I could think of. The clutch and brake share the same shaft so usign the 126 bracket and 123 clutch pedal may also work if there are bosses on the 126 to mount the clutch slave. You could tell by popping the panel and looking for the 2 bosses on the driver side of the 126 bracket

Thank you for your thoughts. I took my 123 donor car out to my Indie's and he will take a look and see what he thinks about switching it all over.
