The brakes will be the same as yours, assuming they are both 24v cars.
Other than that its a simple bolt for bolt swap on the bodywork.
Interior is a bit more involved but Johnraka Pedro and myself have all put Senator dashes into Carltons so there's a few tips and pointers to be found on here.

You'll need a new gearlever surround - NOT the end of the world but start asking around now because they arent that common either.

Just the senator specific leather Gaiter - the wood trim around the gaiter on Sennys is the same - Auto or manual

Carlton one doesn't fit

I have a brand new one (and the leather gear knob) - both cost me an absolute fortune from Vauxhall but I'm not parting with them - one day I'll have another Senator and I'm pretty sure it will be purchased as an auto but end up with a manual gearbox conversion job
