I'm in the process of doing this to my teeth can and I had to trim a little bit on the back so far.

Default Re: How To: Explorer Center Console

Ok guys... spent alot of time this weekend, I put in my Explorer Bucket Seats, Passenger one isn't powered, but the Driver side one is! Its so sweet and cool.
Also put in the full Explorer Center Console.... it was a pain, but really worth it!

Here are pics, out with the old 60/40 seats, in with the new!














Sorry the last few pics were kinda bad.. dont know why.

Also for some reason now my Air Bag indicator light on my cluster is blinking... i think the bulb on the switch to turn the passenger bag off is burnt out...

Its probably how his truck came, basic trucks came with a rubber mat instead of carpet.

Anyone know how the center console mounting bracket is mounted in a 97, I believe, explorer? Is it welded, bolt, riveted etc.?

iirc I didn't lol, I just drilled holes in the metal part of the console " insides and bolted it down, it's solid, doesn't move didn't see a problem with it so I left it, just to be sure do you have a picture of the part your referring to
