Hey, Buckshot - Don't rule out getting matching panels off a same-generation Expedition. Seems like Tan is the most popular Expy interiors - and you can probably score some nice bucket seats (tan, of course - that bolt right in and wire up if powered) if that's what you'd want to do. Definitely much cheaper than reupholstering your existing. An overhead shelf unit (about $100) gives you electronics and storage options.

I have honestly not thought about looking into the over head storage unit. Honstly the seats I have arent bad enough i would reupholster them just yet, the cushion is still okay, just not perfect. But if i can find a decent set at the junkyard... im not afraid to go junkyard shopping.

You can use a garment steamer to bring your seat cushions back to life. Use a steamer with a hose and go over the cushions very slowly. Steam will make any foam padding like new. I worked for an upholstery shop and we used it on all cushions. Obviously this only works on cloth seats. If you add some ammonia, it will remove odors.
