Obd2 swap question

[Jaxso32]

Kind of an odd question, but can a 96 interior work with a 97+ harness? I want to swap my mj to obd2, but I'm not a fan of the newer style interior. Any advise or experience would be appreciated

I thought '86 was already OBD2.

96 is obd2, but the 96 is supposed to be different than the 97, or at least that is my understanding. For the sake of part availability using the 97+ electronics would make my life easier, but I would much rather have the older style dash & interior

Short answer is no.
