Well since I am currently unemployed and cant really afford to get the parts needed to finish the engine swap right now. I figured I would clean up the inside of the Sunfire, wire what can be wired on the interior and do what I can for now.
This is what it looked like inside when I started this evening
I got the multi function switch, headlight switch, hazard switch and wiper switch wired up. Replaced the 96 Isuzu shifter with a 2002 Getrag shifter, re-installed the interior fuse panel and got rid of what i didnt need from inside the car. It looked like this after that.
Close up of the new shifter (I have a B&M that will be installed at a later time.)
I then swapped the seats from my Cavalier into the Fire because the Fire seats are soooo much more comfortable and I drive the Cav everyday.
Thats all for now. I am going to work on it more this weekend. Hopefully I will get all the wiring through to the engine bay and start running wires for my gauges that have been sitting in my room for the past few months. Once that is done I am going to start dying all the interior pieces black and reinstall everything. Hopefully by then I will be able to put some money into the car and get to ordering what I need to get the engine going.
Comments welcome.

sf seats are much better then cav i have them in mine till i put my recaros in
Thanx ALOT Brad. But unfortunenately, even with that help, it wouldnt be ready. I would not be able to have the cash by then with the wedding coming up and me not having a job. Plus I still need to spend about another $1200-$1500 on top of the harness. I REALLY appreciate it though, thank you so much.
