Interior parts
My 1982 F250's interior is in great shape but is a bare bones model (doesn't even say XL or anything), and has power nothing.
I'm wondering if anybody sells an XLT model or whatever filler kit to fill in the wells located behind and to the sides of the seat back just above the cab corners?I know there must be something. I'd insulate the wells and then install the facia piece (usually cardboard kind of material I believe, like on the back of the upper bench seat. Any ideas?

Well I went to a wrecking yard and found the pieces I needed from an XLT.
Funny thing is the vertical corner pieces that run from the rear cab corner floor to the cab roof were made of plastic/vinyl like the pillers and door panels, but the horizontal pieces above and below the rear window and the horizontal connecting piece above each door window that connect to the front piller plastic/vinyl pieces and rear corner vertical pieces were also made of metal.
I also got a like new hanging tool pouch with pockets thing in good condition that goes behind the rear seat and snaps on under the rear window. I traded my old rear step bumper (gray metal) that I didn't need anyway for all the interior pieces and also got an intake air filter housing and a few other small things (great condition tranny and transfer shifter boots, etc.) that I know I can use down the line (ever priced out those boots these days). So it turned out to be a good deal for me....no cash involved.
My buddy is a body and paint man and he says he can color match up the interior pieces just fine with the rest of the interior using some chemical and flex paint on the them so that they match and the paint will stay on (he just did my door panels)
I guess I'll have to get a roof liner now to tie it all in.
It never ends....LOL
