Center Console for Ford Explorer Police Interceptor

[peterk9]

Why?

Welcome to the Forum.
I'm guessing the "Why" is about changing the shifter location?

That is the OEM console offered as a factory installed option on the PI. Its basically a retail console with a different face plate that does not have the shiftier hole.

I also found such a console.
Remake? Is another OEM?

That looks like an OEM with the shifter removed.

For those who have 3D printers there are "cup" holders you can print. It's for a 2014 model but you can tweak the dimensions in your slicer accordingly.

Also going to drop These shifter cups here that re-use the clips for the shifter jacket, and replaces the traction control dial with a drop in cup. Free to download, and I think it'll fit a bit better.

What kind of floor mats are you using? Cut to fit? Or made to size?

Here you go, Maxpider. SKU # L1FR03621509 for the rear and L1FR03611509 for the front. I like them, easy to clean and fits well. I got gear oil on the rear panel, and it was able to wash out without it smelling afterwards.. so I'd vouch

Welcome to the Forum.
FYI, the member you quoted was last seen here on August 4, 2020. If he was still following the thread, he would not be able to offer it for sale on the forum because only those with an Elite Explorer membership may do so.

Backing up what Peter said, Here is a cup I've made to fill that space as well as the traction cup. Hope it helps!





~I will also print them and ship them to you, PM or look at my profile

Are you still making/selling the shifter hole cup? This is the style that mounts from underneath and keeps the chrome trim around the opening?

 

[atikovi]

Never mind, I made a blank out of textured plastic to fit the opening. Might add some power outlets to it.

While that looks nice and does what you want, there really is no functionality to it as opposed to the 'cup' holder.

Added a pair of power outlets leaving room for additional switches.

 

[coroark1]

That looks really cool.

Installed. Just having trouble installing the rear panel on the console with the cup holder. Can't fit it in with that bar in place.

 

[mrdot]

wow, best mod on a floor shifter console i've seen!

 

[MoistSallyMosin12]

Maybe I've missed it somewhere, do you need the Panel Console Plate to install the center console? or can that be skipped? haha

Panel Console Plate​

I don't think it's absolutely necessary but it won't be as secure as it should be without it and may feel loose. I made sure it came with the console when I bought it.

BTW if anyone wants an OEM retail console from a 2015 that was removed at purchase, let me know. I will give mine away for shipping costs. I scavenged a few panels off it, but for the most part its just collecting dust in my garage.

Lol I know this is a stretch but that console still collecting dust?
