Question Center Console, will these work?

Im wanting to do the console mod on my L and I have found 3 on ebay.

1999 Eddie Bauer Expedition
2000 Eddie Bauer Expedition
1999 Expedition XLT

Will these work? I have heard that the 2000's are the ones to get because they are wider than previous years. Is that true? Also, what kind of paint would I need to mach the interior.

This is the one you want.

The wide one.(the other 2 will work also, just not look as good, too narrow)

You will have to paint it though.

Also from what I can see.

It is missing the mounting brackets , about $50 each( You will need 2) , and also the plastic shell in the middle .

OK then, can I also get the shell at a dealer? Also, did Ford ever color the console gray like the interior of the Ls or do all Expeditions come with tan interiors? Seems like every one I find on ebay are only tan. Oh well, I'll be willing to paint it as long as I can get my hands on a damn console. There are several junk yards around here but are small so they never have what Im looking for.

VINNIE, help me make this easier on me and just give me yours.

OK, Im going to bed now.

That is why I said F' it and just ordered the whole thing from FoMoCo. It costs a little more (I got a good discount) , but I had it in 2 days and it was gray.

BTW-

Here is a pic of the brackets you will also need
