My wife wanted to buy me an overhead console for my 97 F150. I do not need any fancy electronic things, just some storage. Any ideas where to get a quality unit? How do they attach? Thanks.

 

The shelf-it storage unit looks pretty good, but it's kinda big, don't know if you want something like that.

I find the stock overhead console on my XLT pretty useless, except for the temp reading.

 

Thanks. That looks pretty good, but it's a bit much. There seems to be a serious lack of storage in my truck. I just need an overhead storage unit for a couple pair of glasses, and some misc. junk.

 

We had these in our company trucks, don't know what the insides looked like as none of us had keys to them. www.tuffyproducts.com

 

I have always wanted a overhead console. It just looks so plain up there in between the visors. Of course I want a temp gague (out/in) and compass.

 

do a search on e-bay for "expedition console". there are some overhead consoles there that may be of interest to you for not too much $.

 

To find them on Ebay, type in < overhead consoles > and click "Search" When your general search comes up click on one of the E-bay sites and it'll take you to the overhead consoles, about four pages worth. Does anyone know how the console is attached to the F-150 roof? Would like to put one in my Aerostar

 

How about 1 of you guys w/ the overhead take some pics, and post for us less fortunates!

 

I agree? Anyone?

 

OK, you asked for it. The first compartment is for sunglasses the second is for a garage door opener, since I don't use either, I have little use for it. If you can make out the temp its 76F. (actual current temp!! NICE!!)
