Non explorer Overhead console?

I have a '99 ranger XLT, standard cab. I am wanting to know if anybody has installed any overhead consoles other than the ones that come out of explorers? If so do you have pictures and were there any difficulties?

I have heard a handful of stories of people putting the OHC from '98 broncos in their rangers, but can't find pictures. I think it would be too long to fit a standard cab?

Thank you for any help

OHC meaning "Over Head Console? That's all you're asking, not if the Over Head Cam engine will fit?

Yes, I'm asking about the overhead console. Sorry, just tedious typing it out but I wish it had a different acronym.

I took the liberty of changing the title. You may not get many replies, but you won't get that engine question again.....

Fairy tales since there were no ‘98 Broncos. Until they were reintroduced in 2021 the last FSB Bronco was made in ‘96.

I had a ‘94 EB Bronco with an overhead console. It was basically the same size and function as the one used in Explorers. I imagine finding an Explorer console would be easier to find.
