I am looking to buy the interior A pillar trim pieces, both sides. I am also looking for both side kick panels. I prefer Eddie Bauer tan but will paint if necessary. Anyone know of any?? Thanks Tim

Does anyone know how to remove the second row interior reading light? Do I have to drop the headliner to access it. I am trying to replace it with a new one. 2021 XLT

I have read many posts about water pooling on the passenger side floor after a hard rain. When driving in the rain, I hear a burbling sound around the sunroof front seals (seems like both sides). I have water tested the drain tubes and all is working fine. I have poured water in the roof-rack...

Hello knowledgeable people... I have an opportunity to pick up some interior parts from a help-yourself and make an offer, part out of a 2013 XLT Explorer. I have a an early 2016 FPIU (12/2015 build date). I'm considering the auto-off headlight switch, rear door panels (maybe all 4 if the...

Hi, I’m Brayden. My first car was a 1996 Ford Explorer. I’ve been working on getting it to where I want it right now I’m tackling the interior. I have my headliner all pulled out, but it’s very brittle. I managed not to crack the pieces, but it’s almost like a cardboard texture. I don’t think...

Hey I’m new here. I’m the lucky owner of a 98 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer. I’m looking for a few interior items if anyone can’t point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance

The forum search feature doesn't seem to work (just gives me errors when I try to search for anything). What is the trick with removing the center console? I found various instructions, removed all of the bolts/nuts, and then hit the center bracket backwards to push to console back "at least 2...

Hello everyone, My name's Joe and I've recently become the new lease holder of a new 2018 Platinum Explorer. I got an interior detail and the guys used some sort of conditioner on the MATTE FINISH. Now it's this cheesy looking finish that I hate. Where in here would you recommend I post? They...

Tell me what you think... I know I didn't clean it up lol.

FYI: AutoZone is having a sale of the ScanGauge II (online only) for only $119.99 through 12/31/17 (vs. $169.00 at the manufacturer's website). Seems like a good deal if the operating system is current (otherwise an additional $25.00 fee to mail in/have updated via the manufacturer.)

Hello all, I am new here so I apologize if I am breaking any rule. I am trying to find a part number for the part in the picture. This is driving me nuts. I am looking for a replacement so that, being the nerd I am, I can repurpose this compartment for a cellular hotspot, vehicle tracker...

The headliner in my 2000 Mountaineer got soaked when the drain for the sunroof came off. I would have cleaned it, but when I removed it it was moldy. I have small children and didn't want the risk of them getting sick. I was wondering if anyone knew where to find new headliner backing and...

Hey guys, Just wondering if anybody else has experienced this or has any advice. I have an '07 limited with the "camel" interior, and the plastics on my driver & passenger doors are sun faded at the top. They look a little chalky, like the UV from the sun has gotten to them over the years. Is...

So I'm stripping the interior of my 96 explorer xlt..I'm in the process of making it a toy, either mud truck or buggy type vehicle and need to know what wiring inside the interior and behind dash must be left, such as ignition wiring etc. It will never be street legal so I'm pulling all the...

I Have a 2016 Ford Explorer sport. I was curious to see if anyone knows the exact color for the (black pebbled plastic) used for the interior. I called ford parts department to see if they had a spray, but the sales person told me they don't carry one. I have a few small scratches that I want to...

Alright, this one has me stumped. I've got a 2007 explorer limited with the dual automatic climate. Air works great, heat's even better. Only problem is the fan only works on high. I've owned a couple of older cars and had to replace the resistor pack on those, I'm assuming this one uses...

Evening, I just went through my dash lights and got them all replaced with LED's, still pretty happy with those. I'm just wondering now as they're quite a bit brighter than the stock bulbs, how many other interior bulbs can I access and upgrade? Figured I'd start with my radio and shifter...

Hello I'm Brandon, 20yrs old and today I purchased a V8 Eddie Bauer from family friends(only owners and no accidents). Before I drove a 2005 Taurus se and it had major problems, they offered us an incredible price($1700!) so I had to accept the deal. It has 133,000 miles and runs like a champ...

The light aluminum trim wasn't really doin it for me, so I'm wrapping all these pieces in a carbon fiber patterned vinyl. So far I've done the center console. I'm still trying to figure out if the AC vents and door trim can be removed. It's easier to wrap when you have the pieces off, especially...

I would like to replace my air bag on the passenger side of my truck. The bottom left corner has a broken mount that keeps the skin on and it flaps. It also has splits in the dye so I want to get a new one.I know the whole deal about disconnecting the battery. I've taken one out of another...

So question for everyone - I just pulled out the DRIVER SIDE quarter interior panel and there is some kind of box next to the rear washer fluid tank - I can't figure out how to post a picture of it but can anyone tell me what it is? My sound guy said it doesn't look like the factory amp Bc those...

Basically, I have an 11 foot strip of green LEDs that I can cut to whatever length, and I have no idea what to do with it. I've already added some awesome green footwell lights, and now I have a lot left over. I just want to find something that'll look awesome and not tacky. So, EF, shoot me...

I was trying to find some custom-fit floor mats for my 97 Mercury Mountaineer (spilled on coffee like a dummy on my other ones), and I found a neat little website called ggbailey.com. They make custom-fit floor mats, and you can pick the carpet and edge colors and they will embroider your name...

As previously noted, I recently bought a 1997 Mercury Mountaineer. It is in sound mechanical shape, with only 64K miles, but because it sat for a while the interior has some minor mold issues. However, I just met a guy who has a 97 Explorer that he is parting out, and the interior looks...

Hey guys I'm new to this forum I've been looking around all day on mods I can do with my explorer. I'm currently putting a new engine in mine and have decided to keep it for a while. I enlisted in us marines so I want to keep this vehicle here and don't plan on ever getting rid of it so I'd like...

Hi All, I am buying an 07 XLT with new tranny and engine, new tires and wheels, and new suspension. It was a taxi here in Las Vegas The overhead console is missing from the interior, and I imagine many more little parts, insignias, and things will also be missing. Anyway, I would...

Hi everyone, As I am just new to this forum I shall try to be as informative as I can in describing the problem: Me and my buddy (Dutch) have started travelling in Australia (backpacking) and bought ourselves a Ford Explorer 1998 XLT 4.0 SOHC as we wanted to do some off-roading on our...

So i got an idea while talking to a friend and I decided to paint some of the trim in my car white. I have a 2002 Ford Explorer XLS, which is grey and I figured it would give it a nice clash. Here's some pics :) Enjoy and tell me what you think, Good or Bad, Yay or Nay. :exp::exp::exp...

Hi, has anyone had the idea of tearing out the carpet in the back of a 2000 XLT and replacing it with a type of truck bed liner? Rhino liner or line-x come to mind. Also covering the back of the rear seats so that when they are folded down, they have the liner on it all they way of to the front...

Still waiting on my EX to be delivered, but I have a question about the interior mood light that ties into MFT. The dealer told me that this is installed at the dealership which tells me that its something I might be able to do myself. If I can save the $150 in labor he quoted me to do it, I...

Figured we needed up a writeup... Front doors: Remove the trim caps from around the door handles (makes it easier to remove the panel from around the handles) Remove the (2) phillips screws from behind the door pull Pry panel away from the truck to release the push-in connectors from...
