XLT to FX4
I am in the process of upgrading my xlt to make it have all the bells and whistles that of a lariet or FX4. I have already put on the towing mirrors, lift, rims, audio, but i want to spice up my interior a little and I was wondering if a FX4 dash cluster would plug right into my XLT? I mean they both have the same gauge just the FX4 has chrome rings and a fancier setup then that of an XLT cluster which is just plain and black!

I know on some vehicles if you change out the instrument cluster they wont work and the truck may not even start due to ECM/Cluster not being coded for eachother. I cant say I've changed many newer Fords but I know on alot of GM's that we have to reflash the ECM in order to get a different Cluster to work or for the car to even start up after...

Actually in your case it should work. You need to remove your cluster and check the instrument cluster connector #237, white with 14 wires, for a white with pink striped wire. It will be the 4th one from the end. If it is there then the cluster will work. An auto cluster will still work just remove the PRND21 indicator and replace it with the old cover.
