This generation's interior debuted in 2009, establishing a new standard for comfort and utility. The 2010 models were largely a carry-over, but introduced the high-performance SVT Raptor and the luxurious Harley-Davidson special editions, as well as the 4x2-focused FX2 sport trim.

11th Gen Ford F150 OEM Interior Upgrades
Center Console and Jump Seat Swaps
Mounting The Console / Jumpseat
The holes are the same for the regular center console and jumpseat - this swap is very direct and only takes a few minutes. The mounting bracket may or may not be pre-drilled. If the bracket isn't pre-drilled, simply through-bolt or have a nut plate welded on.
A flow-through console conversion also requires a shifter conversion, which is a bit more in-depth.
Seatbelt Options
- Regular Cab Trucks use a three-point seatbelt that comes down from the rear wall, fastening onto the center seat.
- Supercab and SuperCrew Trucks were equipped with a lap belt for early model years, and a 3-point seatbelt for later model years.
Adding Power Seats
Mounting The Seats
The holes are the same. Simply remove your old seats by undoing the four mounting bolts and unplugging the wiring harness. Install your new seats, plug them in and you're good to go!
Wiring Considerations
The floor plugs didn't change significantly during this generation, but adding heated seats or memory seats is technical and time consuming. Wiring instructions for bypassing memory are available with purchase. Getting heating & cooling working in the XL/XLT model is possible but requires in-house modifications. Contact us for details.
