expo dashes are compatible 97-00. quite a few expos came with black interior. i found one at pull a part. i was thinking of doing a full interior swap but i needed black Ranger vinyl floor, black ceiling, and all the black parts that go behind the seats like the jack cover and seatbelt/speaker enclosures.

No, the 97-00 Expos are compatible with 95+ plus Rangers.

Sorry, didn't explain that very well.
