Should fit with no problems at all. If the one your putting on has options you don't and you want them then check for a plug before the door close and make sure you take the harness so you have those options since the plugs should be the same just might need the switch too

If they are both third gen Explorers it should work. Explorers sold in late 2001 are an earlier generation.
