Yep got the seats from and 02 navigator and the console from an 02 expedition. Good luck finding one in nice shape it took a while for me to find!

You shouldn't need to tap the holes. Mine bolted right up without having to tap them.

Forgot to take some pics I'm going to work now so I'll take some tomorrow. Turned out real good. I like it much better than my bench seat

yea the bench isnt bad, but the buckets and buttload of extra center console room is so much more convenient

Here are the pictures of my swap. The seats are out of an 02 Navigator and the console from an 02 Expedition. Real happy with how it turned out. The lid is a little worn on the console other than that it is in very good shape. The seats cleaned up nice and the only issue with them are the indents. Must have been stored against something and left indents in them but not a big deal to me.
