- PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS OR YOU WILL MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES I DID. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR VEHICLE!!
Here is a quick video on me swapping interior work surfaces between my two F150 platinum‘s. Enjoy!
If you found this helpful, please give it a thumbs up and subscribe! I really appreciate it! 😁
Thank you! I was not switching out the armrest but my rear seats heater button was pushed in and this allowed me to retrieve it and fix it. Thank you for saving me 4 hours at a dealership.
Wow! Thanks I needed to take the cover off the locking mechanism to clean it. I spilled soda and now it's a sticky mess. Thanks for the video. Nice legs by the way.
Great video. I just ordered a Platinum F-150 Powerboost and unfortunately my dumb self didn't tick the box for this option, because I didn't think I'd need it, but then thought of a couple of scenarios in which it would be very nice to have. Will definitely be doing this when it arrives!
Great install video, very detailed, thanks. video was awesome. Thanks again
god bless this man.
A lifelong friend of mine earned the patent on this work surface, not surprizingly I went to a school for gifted kids with him in Deaborn MI only a couple miles from the Ford world headquarters.
Tell him he needs to get to work on the patent for offering it as an aftermarket option so we don't have to do jank swaps like this.
Like your F-150
Thanks for posting this!
Easier to install a supercharger. wtf
Great video!!! Appreciate the info!! 🤛🏻🤜🏻
This spartan beast has two Platinums
Wish I could put that front center console fold out flat work surface between the front bucket seats in the Explorer or Expedition. Any idea if it can be done? That is a GREAT feature. I'd use it all the time, along with a mobile hotspot taking my laptop and home office mobile. I am contemplating an F150 instead of an suv largely because of that option. Sometimes it's the little things.
Couldn't you just swap the lid onto the existing hinge? They look the same
I've got a Tremor without the work surface. Any idea on where to source this console? I called the dealership and they said its not possible lol. With that being said, I would happily trade with any of the subscribers, or purchase from anyone that has one. Thank you!
Did you ever swap your console? I am looking to do the exact same thing.
Hello Man
Thanks for the video
I made a stupid mistake by not ticking this work surface option.. can you help me find one so I can order and fix it ?
I've searched the whole Internet and I couldn't find one
Thanks for the video made my transition a lot easier
Great video on the console, but wondering if you know how to change the light bulb in the same compartment?
I really thought this was standard on the Platinum's. I have the 2021 King Ranch and I have it. So weird....
I've talked to several parts departments and it looks like we need a VIN number for the trim level we each have. Anyone have a VIN# of a 2021 King Ranch with a work table?
Thanks for posting this.
I have seen the $800 parts list before.
If I followed along correctly the only part that a person would need to buy to add the work surface to a truck is the actual worksurface and all the other pieces will reinstall correctly ??
That does appear to be the case but I can’t say for sure.
I bought a new powerboost off the lot, and unfortunately they didn’t have the work surface :(
I really wanted it. I wish ford would sell just the lid..really sucks ass that they don’t.
after going thru all that work to redesign the center console foldable shifter is standard future why this is even an option and not standard future man i am so mad i love my truck but fuck ford for not making this thing standard stupid stupid stupid ford
If we had a parts list with part numbers that would be great. I went to my dealer and was pretty much laughed away from the parts counter.
Unfortunately I can’t help you there either. You just need to find a dealer that’s willing to work with you and search for the parts, or provide diagrams of the center console. XLT has multiple interior colors, Lariat has multiple colors, platinum has 2 and limited has its own color for the work surface. You need to search for the one specific to your trim and color.
@@PlatinumPeasant Thanks for the reply and the post!
@@ffjrichardson I have a diagram with the parts list of a center console with a work surface for the standard black interior
@@nicholasaldama7080 can you provide teh part number for the black interior, XLT over here
@@JibaroTech @nicholasaldama7080 Did you guys ever hone in on what parts are needed in order to swap out the non-worksurface in an XLT (std black interior) for a work surface console?
Nice!
Professional or not you made an excellent video on how to change that center console. Mine has the fold down shifter which ford marketed as if you have that then you get the work station.
How much is the replacement part?
Thank you. I swapped between 2 trucks, so cost for me was 0. The part number and cost depends on what trim you have.
@@PlatinumPeasant 21 XLT Powerboost 7.2kw
Could this also work on the 2023
Super Duty? For some reason they have the version that’s on the front bench seat but not for the center console, which is odd considering how useful the work surface is, and there’s no console shifter to worry about either.
I can’t answer that unfortunately, I have no idea how or if they differ
Nice
Thanks for the video! Curious are these Work Surfaces available for purchase OEM anywhere?
Dealers may have them, I’m not sure. It’s always tricky finding them for install as they have to match your interior.
@@PlatinumPeasant ok thanks. Mine happens to match yours so I took a pic the sticker in ur video.. hoping that's enough reference for dealer to order with.
Could you do this with the pro
Im trying to get the parts, what i will need to buy, only the table, and reuse the one i have?
I do not provide part numbers, each truck has different part numbers due to trim.
@@PlatinumPeasant i can understand. But for example. If I have already the center console with the shifter, I’ll need to buy the top, middle and lower part, including the button to open the surface. Will I need another part to make it work?
appreciate this, your post on the 14gen forum brought me here....I am considering this myself and it looks like you only swapped the full armrest(w/work station and internal hinge) and main hinge (which looks the same).
on the thread there are part numbers and significant cost for the rear cupholder, and cupholder upper and lower trim. where you able to reuse those in the non-workstation truck with the workstation or did they have to swap over as well?
I reused all parts and bolts in the video. Nothing was left over.
So did you order this as a kit or individual parts?
Is the leather part changeable if the one you get is not the same color
I’m not sure. Double check the video where I swapped the locks, you might be able to see whether it is or not. Where are the bracket attaches to the park at swings
Bought my 2021 Lariat with the false assumption that the folding lid is standard on all F150s, so now I am looking for a retrofit solution. Next I need to figure out the part numbers for the folding lid...
Check with your local dealer for the parts!
@@PlatinumPeasant I have emailed >5 local dealers and AutoNation as well. One local dealer told me they have never heard of such thing and another local dealer was curious about where I bought my car. So far no more response.
@@lazibayer Any update? cuz i have 2021 Lariat as well with no work surface and i would like to install them
@@HershelJacob unfortunately no...
@@PlatinumPeasant wow.
where did you get it
How much does it cost just the work surface, do you know?
Unfortunately I don’t know. Dealers have their own prices and work surfaces vary based on trim too. The work surface for an XLT won’t be the same price as a Limited.
Did you try to get dealer to do it?
They wanted over $800 in just parts.
