How I found out, BTW, is after a long drive on a very cold day the centre console was almost too hot to touch - the reason being that Ford engineering decided to leave the plenum chamber opening, well ... open - and all the hot air that would normally be directed under the front seats blows directly into the console.
I did a search and nothing came up ... anyone else with an '04 notice this?
The outcome of my dance with FOC so far is this ... Ford won't re-install the part despite all the marketing materials (order guides etc) indicating that it is standard equipment ... because it would be deemed to be a "modification" that would have the effect of voiding the warranty!
I'm not finished with them yet, so if anyone's interested I will keep you up to date with what's happening.

Give mw a break.
FOC is a joke.
If they do agree to put them in for you, they'll charge you afortune to do it. :rolleyes:
