Can the middle bench be removed for a console?

Have a 07 xlt with the bench seat w/ fold down arm rest. While looking around while getting service done I saw a few w/ a center console between the seats, but did not go to the dash like the fx4. Is this a real option for those of us with the split bench?

If I could find a gray one could I unbolt my center seat and drop in the factory console? Anyone tried this?

I did that. I got an XLT center console off ebay while they were cheap and replaced the center jumpseat. Direct bolt in replacement. Piece of cake.

Here's an auction on ebay. I searched f150 console.

Sweet!!

Thanks alot. My search results showed mostly stuff about changing to a center w/ shifter.

What key words did you use w/ ebay?

I tried "07 f150 cneter console", "xlt center console".

I just got 1 and it had the shifter.

I must suck at the internet!

Yeah, I found using f150 console only in the search got me all available results and I can weed them out from there instead of letting them do it. Here's another one.

My 06 xl didn't even have cup holders on the center seat, probably cause i have the 4.2L. I installed a console out of the last generation super duty, its smaller and had more room for my 5 speed.
