Can I make firefox 19.0.2 look like firefox 3.6?

I am currently running version 15.0.1 under Windows 7 with "Firefox 3 theme for Firefox 4+" and "Status-4-Evar" installed to mimic the look of version 3.6. The update wizard for version 19.0,2 says my addons will not work with it. Are there other means available to make Firefox 19 -accurately- mimic the look and function of version 3.x? I HATE the overly-slick, colorless, everything-hidden look of the newer interface and refuse to upgrade unless I can duplicate the interface I have now. I just want to know ahead of time if it can be done, rather than change versions just to revert back if I find I can't have what I want in the new version.

It's the first one that hasn't been updated for Firefox 19; Status-4-evar is compatible.

Those of us who haven't used Firefox 3.6 for years likely will find your question difficult to answer. Here's a project that might take you ten minutes but will make your question easier to answer. Can you install a portable version of Firefox 19 and look at the interface and make a list of what you want to change?

Note: Firefox portable is a stand-alone install, but you should not run it simultaneously with normal Firefox. Exit one before running the other.
