Explorer Trim Level ID

[gerryleea]

I just bought a 98 Explorer which has no outward trim level identification what-so-ever. I had a 91 Eddie Bauer which was obvious. I'm sure the ID badge/lettering on this new one was removed. Judging by the nice interior, radio/cd, and bells & whistles, it's probably an XLT. I know for sure it's not an Eddie Bauer. But how do I know exactly what it is?

Does it have a two tone color scheme?

Fender flares

I have a 97 Eddie bauer, they usually have fender flares. Which are plastic type modlings coming out from teh wheel wells, they will be a different color than the paint job. If you have those it's an Eddie Bauer, if not, an XLT.

Well, the little sticker on the side that reads "Eddie Bauer" usually gives it away.

With bells and whistles, you probably have an XLT.
