I would think the easiest way to get a light in there is to have run one into the console before bolting it down and then maybe tapping into the power line going to the driver's power seat.

edit: on second thought, probably tap a wire or fuse that's switched.

Ford should make a flow through for XLT's without the console shift. Like the SD's.
