Highly recommend this aftermarket trim piece that aesthetically ties the audio volume/tuner knobs and buttons into the screen above.
It’s a simple piece of black plastic that really improves the look of this area on an XLT, covering up some of that light gray plastic that some people find objectionable.
The color and finish of this piece matches the screen surround exactly, and it’s a perfect fit. Looks like it came from the factory this way (and probably should have.)
At $28, a little pricey for a simple piece of plastic, but I‘m very happy with it, and consider it money well spent.
(Sorry I didn’t take a “before” photo, but I’m attaching a before/after from the Amazon product page so everyone can see what I’m talking about.)

*** Oh, also note in the driver’s side door in the middle photo another little tip: Kleenex sells tissues in these round boxes that are a perfect fit in the front bottle holder space. (You can squeeze one into the rear bottle space, but harder then to get in and out).
Sometimes I can find these at CVS, but you can buy them in bulk on Amazon and always have them on hand. They are Kleenex Perfect Fit Facial Tissues, although I see other brands on Amazon offering the, as well.
