It sounds like a good idea.  Would it be easier to trade the doors?

I figure it will be somewhat of a pain and, before I waste too much time on this project, has anyone on this list successfully performed this transplant?  I checked out the Archives and, although others have asked the same question, I didn't find any message stating they had successfully done it.  I am left with the impression that it might be fairly straightforward, the only problem being the holes left in the panels from the switches.  Anyway, any advice would be appreciated.
