Since I don't have it in front of me and I have never looked at one in the JY I used to sell Ranger Parts out of, I can't really say BUT, the compartment in front of the Cup Holders and some of the area in front of that, with the up-swing, a Shifter could be made to come up through that area and IF you used a remote mounted LED Display showing Shift positions it might work.
Attempting to mod that console, which looks good, and damaging it, would take away from the value so I understand not wanting to screw it up.
Can the Escape Shift Unit be mounted inside of the existing Console ?
How did the numbers match up from Mike ?
The top of that console is two pieces, which would make it more difficult to mod with fiberglass. I have a one-piece console top (from a Sport) that I cut up to see how that would work. I determined it would look like crap, so that is why we are moving on from the Expo console.
Yes, the Escape shifter (highly modified) will fit inside the Expo console, but just barely.
Based on the measurements Mike gave me, it appears the Escape console will fit between the seats. May be a tight fit, but most consoles are jammed up against the seats anyway.
