I have an 09 Ranger. I didn't see any with overhead consoles at the dealership at the time. I was wondering if they actually exist for our trucks (just a plain one, nothing fancy.)

If not is there something else that would be a close fit that I could swap with minimal mods?

 

Explorer overhead consoles fit, just gotta wire em up :) Got one in my truck, awesome addition..

 

Yep, I love mine

They're a direct drop-in? Wow. For my '09, do I have to find a same-age donor Explorer? Or will 98-01's work.

The wiring part doesn't bother me. I converted a vehicle from diesel to port fuel injection and wound up rewiring 50% of the stuff under the hood. I thought I'd have to fibreglass something up to make it fit.

 

Anything from a '95 to '01 or so Explorer should work. The worst part is cutting your headliner.... once you get that done you just have to drill two holes and cut a couple slots.

 

What colour is your interior? Just an FYI... if it's black I've found that Krylon Fusion satin black is a very close match to a black Ranger interior.

 

The wiring will be different in a 07+ Ranger btw

 

to answer your other question ohc do not come on rangers from the factory

 

this.

but it wasnt too hard to figure out what goes where.

 

i love mine! so worth it

 

If you go get one form a junkyard do you need the wiring used in the explorer or can you use different wiring?

 

you can use different wires just get the plug

 

and get the ambient temp sensor on core suport
