Default Question about interior Trim

I've noticed that when you buy the dash trim most sites differentiate the 2005 from 2006/07. Why is this? Is there any difference? Also, is there a way of just buying the 06 trim kit since I like the color better than the 05 trim?

The diff is the 06/07 does not have the lock cylinder for the console.

That sucks. So I guess I can't get the new color then.

The difference in the center console is the 2005 has a place for the pass side air bad on/off control warning light. The 2006/2007 has this light in the mirror and automatic switching depending on the weight placed in the passenger seat. Other than that they are the same. They also list some new colors for the 2006/2007

The dash pod is different also depending one the power convertible top or not.

All parts are the same.If you have the F55 select ride option you do not use the 3rd piece that is different between 2005 and 06/07
