Center Console swap

I did the center console swap into my 2020 XLT but the AC trim panel on the driver side is different from the donor truck.
The donor truck has the following 3 control slots on it from top to bottom: 4x4, Round trailer brake, and cubby hole
My original from top to bottom only has: 4x4 and square pinch style trailer brake.
Thus I cannot transfer the new panel and had to trim my original to fit for now.
I can't seem to find the correct panel anywhere. They all appear to have the round stye trailer brake?
has anyone dealt with this issue when doing a jump seat to console swap?

Do you still have the trim piece that didn't fit your truck? I might be in need of that piece. Disregard. I misread your post. I'm trying to find the trim piece for a jump seat setup with the 3rd control slot for pro trailer assist.

Just swapped a console into my 2021, did you have to enable the power under the console/jump seat? I'm not getting any power to the console.

Also as far as spare parts go, do you have and need the lower USB you had to remove to slide the console in? They fit in the same slot as the USB in the console and mine came too dirty to clean, and my wife lost the trim piece the truck had originally.

Dunno, I found my console for 300ish, 700 bucks in savings worked out for me.

Guess I'll ask in a forscan thread and see if anyone has any ideas

Powering the front USBs can be done by following the two wires for the one thats on the center seat version and removing the tree clips. The wiring for the F150 console is quite different from the F350, which should have been obvious to me but wasn't.

I cut everything out of the console harness except for two cig lighters and the USB hookup. Some trial and error got the cig lighters working, still can't get the back USB to work but I'm one step closer.
