Hello there,
I am in Saskatchewan exactly 500 miles from you in Billings, we have friends in Billings and were just there last August.

Our contact there is Larry and Marg Bohnen and he has a large ‘race shop’ there called Hot Rod Heaven on what I would term an ‘in city’ acreage in the NE corner of the city just a 1/4 mile off the highway that heads north towards the Canadian border. We need to talk to each other about just how we might be able to make this work.
I don’t drive the Flex from April thought to the end of October so this makes something like this what I would term as do-able. We only need to swap the one bucket and the 60% seats. From what I have been able to determine there is zero difference between 09 and 10 but the part numbers are different. With Billing having a population of a 100K you probably have much more of an opportunity to verify if there are any major differences between the Charcoal of a 9 and 10.
leave a voice mail on the land line 306 463 3402 if you would like to pursue this further. I have several ideas we can toss around.
Thanks

if anyone has a Charcoal 60/40 bench I would like to hear from you. I have the center consul fridge/freezer and captains chairs in black perforated Limited trim.
emails to forwardsareanono@hotmail.com. Summers are in Canada and winters in the Phoenix area so can work this from whatever side of the border that works for someone. Thanks

I have a 2009 Limited in Charcoal with the buckets and refrigerator with only 34000 miles and always stored inside. The leather has been treated regularly with Mothers conditioner so the perforated leather is as new. I would like to sway the fridge/consul and captain chair for a bench if your set is in perfect condition. I live in Saskatchewan in the summer and spend our winters in Arizona in the eastern reaches of the city of Phoenix, called East Mesa. Where are you

I haven't found the time to add the oil cooler yet. I don't have the part number list, but fordflex.net had an how to article from a user, if I remember correctly. If anybody has that link, add it back here in the comments or I will look the link up later!

I don’t know anything about the converter box, so I can’t comment there. Speaking from my experience, I haven’t had any trouble with the lights running without the converter box, and the lights are the only thing I am hooking up on my trailer- no brakes, etc.

Well, exactly the infos I was looking for! There is only one thing I have not seen anyone comment about, and it’s the converter box.

I’ve already ordered the hitch from my local dealer, but when it came to the wiring harness they ask 120$ for it (yeah, being in Canada can get expensive sometimes). When I looked up the schematics, I noticed there is a converter/power box in it, but the one you use doesn’t have it (well actually, there is another model on etrailer that has it for around 20$ more).

Anybody has some sort of comment on this? Is running without the converter/power box can result in blown tailights or other issues? Why would I need the box?

I have no direct knowledge on the part changes for 2013. I went to accessories.ford.com, filtered on 2013 Flex and found the part online here: http://accessories.ford.com/kit-trailer-hitch-bar-10184.html. Part # for that is 9A8Z-19D520-D. That is the same as mine except for a “D” revision. Scroll up in the comments to see a discussion on the D vs C series.
