What is your most unique mod?
I'm curious, what is the most unique mod on your vehicle?
Guidelines for posting:
1. It needs to be unique. - You added a LED interior light where none existed? Awesome, tell us about it. You did and LED bulb swap in the rear hatch? Meh, think of something else.
2. You need to have made the mod to YOUR vehicle. - It doesn't have to be an original idea. You can post your Antman rear bumper cup holders, but only if you did it to your vehicle. If you copied someone else's idea, please give them credit.
3. Only post your MOST unique mod - One, okay, maybe two - but they both better be awesome.

Custom Roof Rack Tie Downs / Roof Rack Brackets
Since I started the thread, it's probably only fair I chip in.
I designed custom roof rack tie down brackets to go with my Rago modular factory support rails. I had them fabricated at a local shop. Now I can easily haul and tie down oversized loads like plywood, etc on top of my runner while also protecting my XM antenna.
Full set of pics here:

Custom steel skid.
And...maybe one more - although I've removed it, but probably will re-work the idea again when I have time, but I ran them for a few years. GX adjustable air springs.

My @#$@$%^%$ whack-a-mole exhaust from URD that leaks from someplace new every couple weeks. We've adjusted, replaced gaskets, cut and re-weld, lengthened, and all manner of other attempts at sealing the thing and it still leaks. JFC if I knew it was going to be like this I would have saved enough to buy a second supercharger and could have given it away! (You didn't say it had to be a good mod... just unique.) Truck goes back to the shop for exhaust again next Tue. This will be it's 10th time in the shop for only the exhaust issue.

I'm pretty sure no one else has this mod... maybe it's lame to some, but it's unique and super useful, and I think it is kind of cool.
Hardwired Federal gooseneck map light, same rugged aluminum variety as used in firetrucks. I fold it under the stereo when not in use so it's out of the way. My wife uses it for journaling at night when we're on the road, I use it for illuminating the console and cupholders and reading maps. 5w bulb, rheostat to adjust intensity, sliding red filter, 12" infinitely adjustable neck.

I really hope this finishes cleanly for you. I love the idea of jumping in the deep end haha. I may or may not have had a 88 Grand Wagoneer with a zebra stripe headliner...

My most unique mod would be my JL speaker where it doesn't belong in my SR5P. First one that I've seen do this. I replaced the side storage pocket
With this
Did all the work myself, also relocated the USB and modified a stock switch blank for the gain knob
