Default Lariat Conversion

Saw some lariat pictures the other day and it made me wonder how hard it would be to do? Of coarse this is going to take some time and money, but how hard do you guys think it would be?

I have an XLT...... I just took what I liked most from the Lariats. Grill, wheels side mirrors,and door and tail gate handles (exterior stuff). Good luck with the inside though, it becomes really expensive fast!

I have a lariat gauge cluster and lariat 18rims if you're interested.

I'm thinking more along the lines of the center console, seats and the center console shifter.

Yeah, that's the one thing that I am worried about. The price tag on it.

Check out tousleyfordparts.com. I havent ordered anything from them yet but it looks like you can order almost everything you'd need for that conversion. It's gonna get $$$$$$ real fast! Goodluck

Installing the lariat cluster itself is easy to install but making your a/c work takes a little doing because of the auto climate control the lariats/KR have.... but it IS doable...there is a ton of posts about this. I just gave up and took the easy road...... installed a FX4 cluster instead. The lariat cluster is yours for $80.
