Anyways I am working on fixing the situation

btw IMO the original cloth seat covers are crap. Ford really needs to rethink using materials that stain so easily and I even had the scotch guard protection done by the dealer.

In all my time detailing, coffee has to be the hardest thing to get out, especially if the person spills it on the seats when it's hot and almost Black. It really loves to stain and even letting my stain remover sit on it awhile and going over it multiple times with my hot water carpet extractor, the stain would still always faintly be there.

Goofy question, how long does it take to switch out from the middle seat to the console or vice versa. I've got a reg cab and rarely have 3 passengers, only did it once and was too tight. In the rare case I would need the seat back in, is it a total pain to swap?

It took me about 30min the first time I did it and most of that time was taken up finding the right socket. There is 4 bolts to take and and replace.

Thanks Ram, figured it was simple, but you never know.

That console that motown is selling, I take you need to buy the front cup holder section separately? Anyone know how much that part costs?

Actually you need to find a XLT console and then use the leather lid off the one motown parts is selling. Finding the XLT Console is the hard part.

The console is out of XLT with bucket seats...they are pretty hard to find.

Some of it looks like the 3rd brake light leaking to me. My seats looked the same way before I swaped them out this summer.

Thanks for making sense of all that for me, not sure what I was thinking. Wouldn't need the leather cover, one of the few sticking to cloth.

FX&E, everything made it home, bumper never moved a inch. Well worth the trip, awesome area down there! It was good meeting you and talking trucks awhile. Hope that dash work outs, you've done an awesome job on that truck and I'd hate to see that dash not work out. thanks again.
