Center console /seat swap

I have an 08 center console I would like to swap for a center seat in medium stone. Anyone interested please email me.

Do you know if this is a direct swap? Want to do the same with mine, but sales rep from dealer doesn't think I can. I have a Lariat with heated seats. Only need center seat to take grandkids camping.

From what I have read here it should be an easy swap. There is a member here who did the opposite and worked fine. He also has a seat - if your in the Texas area.

I will swap either or both of you. A friend and I have identical trucks with seats that are like new, and we both want consoles. Please PM me - I will cover shipping in both directions!

Can't imagine that is anywhere near being the right person to ask. Most sales people I worked with and have delt with would be lucky to know what engine is in the truck. In the older trucks it was a direct swap, but not sure about the newer ones.

Sorry, but I been dealing with this guy for 20+ years, since we both worked at the same dealership. He's one of the GOOD ones, and definetly knows his Ford trucks.

There have been a few threads about this on a few different sites. There were some consoles for sale on ebay that were from a fleet that was spec'd wrong by the way it sounded. The swap worked, but the advice given was to be sure the brackets were included.

That's good then. A lot of vehicle owners get under the impression that the sales dept is the knowledge source and they aren't. Really, the dealer itself isn't even the best place for information, especially if it comes to swapping things out. This is a case by case basis of course. But over the years I have called up asking about past equipment on a vehicle and they always send me to the sales dept. They usually barely know the current vehicle equipment much less an older one!
