There are 2 things one can do to change the file picker in firefox...

1. Change the setting ui.allow_platform_file_picker to false in about:config
2. Install kgtk

yum install kgtk

[bash ~]$ kgtk2-wrapper firefox

Other Integrations

• Themes and styles

I have seen other suggestions like just using a particular theme to make firefox look more integrated however this one only works if you use the default Oxygen theme

Konquefox is another add-on which adds some KDE style buttons

Any suggestions?
