I don't think I've seen this swap don in the US. Good luck!
 
Mostly because US Version (LEXUS/LAND CRUISER) are very luxurious and full optioned with leather Trims Navigation Alloy wheels vice versa
but mine one is From United Nations from auction and in developing cuntries mostly Land cruiser comes with semi full option with steel wheels instead of alloy wheels despite my one being VX Turbo Diesel Grade
 
Is your cruiser is manual and independent front suspension? Do you have electronic AC/Heater controls? If those are manual, why not keep it manual, because electronics cannot last long as manual and finding cruiser parts in Nepal may be very hard. Don't you get Japanese used parts in Nepal?

Do you have the part number for the 3 knob climate control you pictured?
 
So if the 03+ dash fits an 01, would it work vise versa? I'm trying to use parts off my '99 and avoid the nav delete.
 
Anyone ever attempted/tried this? Only real concern is the air vents being misaligned
