No but we can sure locate one, these retail for some bucks i pulled mine from the junk yard and had it all done for around 500 bucks, i am more than willing help any member again, when this came together it felt nice and to have 4 cup holders is the BOMB!!! Full size baby~~

I want to do the same to the G1. I don't think the expy console is the right fit and the OEM plastic console looks like @ss. On the hunt for a G1 console. Yours looks great.:tu:

It seems the critical part is finding a nice console and the wide one not the skinny one.. can you search for them online in junk yards?

What did you do to your passenger set? Or did you use another drivers seat?

Well i got a 2001 expedition passengers seat took all the parts from the seat minus cushion and the top off the seat, they took the bench seat and cut away the foam and re sewed the edge..

Looking very good, David! This should have been a factory-option.

Here's one alternative to finding a new OEM piece: http://www.trademotion.com/partlocator/index.cfm?action=getJointLocator&siteid=214120&chapter=&Sectionids=0,2648&groupid=4624&subgroupid=5199&componentid=9235&make=10&model=Expedition&year=2002&graphicID=MC97500&callout=8&catalogid=2&displayCatalogid=0

I love the center console look, but unfortunately I use that center seat every now and again. :(

hey david, was there any drilling involved, i found all my parts at junkyard also 75$ for seat and wide console, i already have the carpet installed jus need to put the console in if its easy, i know im going to have to take the seat to get cut like you did.

no drilling you will need to go to autozone and get there tap set and need to cut the carpet back, bills cut my seat here in arlington nice guys and covered my lid..
