Talking Expy Console & Seats into 5-spd. XL

Good evening, I had a great day today!
I visited a local Salvage yard today, looking for a replacement driver's door mirror, & the cup holder in the dash.
Well along side of the the truck that had the parts I needed, was an Eddie Bauer Edition Expedition, with a nice set of seats & full console. So I ended up buying everything for $175.00. Score!
I was actually surprised at how easy it was to install & how well the console worked with the Manual trans floor shifter.
So that said, I am surprised I have only found one thread regarding an Expy console with a manual trans.

I will post a few pics tomorrow, as it was to dark to take decent pics by the tyme I finished the install.

I will have to modify the area around the shifter & have a Boot made, & I will have to Dye everything to match the interior, But that can wait for a while.
I like the feel of these seats over the Base model bench seat that was also worn badly.

Yes, she is a rubber floor & I have no desire to install carpet, as she is a worktruck, But that doesn't mean I can't have a Good set of seats for riding comfort.

Looks like it's about time for new brake and clutch pedal pads!

I said the same thing to myself, when I looked at that pic. Actually it is overdue as the clutch pedal has worn thru.
I will be replacing both in the near future.
