It's not quite the same, but check out Dizzie's Mk2 Edition One project thread (http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=36833.0), he's put a 1.8T engine in and swapped the dash, albeit to a Mk3 one, but it'll give you an idea of what's involved.
From reading that, I guess the Mk3 dash needed cutting a bit to fit, I'd guess that the Mk4 dash will be bigger still, so will need more cutting to make it fit.
