OK guys I am a new owner of a old 1997 (pics to come later) f-150 x-cab 4x4
I love this truck and I love this website. You guys are awesome.
OK since this is an XLT it did not come with a digital overhead console. My friend at work got a sunroof and wants to sell me his digital overhead console.
So my question is CAN you install a digital overhead console IF there has never been one there in the First place!!!! I know you can install after market but my question is will the computer in the truck recognize it if I hook it up? or is there more things going on than wiring it up and go. Will it need calibrated? Is it more trouble than worth? Remember My truck did not have one at all before.

 

In my 2000, you calibrate it by just holding the button in, so that probably won't be a problem, as for, if it fits or not, im not sure.
