Don't think they are connected. At least when I drove an '09 for a while I don't remember them bring related/connected, they are separate

no problem. from what i can see they are both jsut a straight up swap with easy installation you just have to get ford to flash your computer for the upgraded information center but the center console is a 30-45 min job

Yeah the console isn't hard to remove and I can't imagine it being complicated to install the lights. The cluster on the other hand, well I'd let Ford install & set that up

Hmmm I'll have to check it out sometime. Never tried to take it apart, just seems like one of those things that I wouldn't want to screw up.
