Navigator rear center console

[FORDTECH]

Anyone ever tried to put a 2nd gen nav rear center console into a 2nd gen expo?

Which one? The console that goes between the driver seat and front passenger?

Nevermind, found it:


Hmm... I do know you can take out the center 2nd row seat to give a "captain chair" feel, but still have foldable seats. Maybe the console attaches to seat anchors?

Hmm, there seems to be hope... the console is 20 percent, the same size as the middle seat.

Found it:


Seems it's held in by 4 screws...possibly the same holes to mount the center seat?

Yeah.. that would be me.. removed center seat and installed a Nav console. it's from an 08 Nav and I fabbed up some brackets for it. Color match in person is not as noticeable.. most people wouldn't know unless they looked hard. Very happy with the outcome.

Hmmm, is the installation of the 08 console different that the illustration I have above?

Heh, I was just about to post this thread over at F150online, in the lowered thread.

oh lol I didn't know you joined over here... lol I didn't know it was from an 08 how much did the console run you? (if you don't mind me asking)

It's is an 08 console for a Nav - I paid $250 shipped for it.. not sure how great a deal that was/is, but I wanted it. Fabbed some brackets as it didn't come with any and it works great - back seat passengers are much happier.

Seems like a good deal. When I looked it up on Tascaparts, they wanted 1000+ for it (unless I was looking at that wrong part?)

Either way, as long as your passengers are happy.
