Just the overhead console. My F150 came with the overhead console with lights. It has a flip down bin that I believe is fitted for a small monitor. I do not see the rail system you are talking about. The reason is because I would like to replace that console to install another console with a 10in after-market flip down monitor. I will take pictures to be more clear. Thanks for trying to help and I apologize for not replying sooner. My newborn keeps me busy, busy, busy...

I will try that tomorrow. Here are the pictures if anyone else want to chime in.
Sorry for the pictures, they are hard on the eye, and I forgot to resize them.

TFT Lcd. I do not recommended yet as I have not install it. It was missing the brackets and installation instructions so go figure (although it was not mentioned in the sale that it was missing hardware). Bought it "new" on E bay for $170.00 I got what I paid for. As long as it works as it was intended is all I care and I hope I am not asking for too much.
