Nalgene Holder
Drivers side is where I put my phone, the BD bags have awesome fake fur inside so it is super comfy to reach in and get it. Pass side is for my nalgene.

I have yet to do a free mod but cheap yes. My TRD offroad sticker gave me 10+hp! Its not like my talon back in highschool days where you could cut the air box, drill out a vacuum line, remove silencer for 3psi more boost and an easy 30hp! Ohh and that atmospheric BOV making super cool sounds and rich shifts causing fireballs and pops. SUPER COOL, LMAO.

What is always 5hp per sticker. Ex owner, unless a 4g63t block, transfer case, FMIC and some random parts counts. LOL.

My favorite free mod...
Unplugging the power antenna motor, which no longer has an antenna attached to raise and lower, so I don't have to listen to it run each time I start or stop my 4Runner.

Yes it does, but its going to be a 3 year build. I parted out last one to help with home purchase. After wife gets her newer Tacoma Im starting my build.
2nd gen Auto Talon/Eclipse. Built 2.0L, e85 tuned, Big turbo, nitrous (for launching and spool), slicks street car. Hoping for 9's in CO altitude. I want to build it correctly and do it right so its going to be a long journey. Last one was my daily driver and that was no fun.

It's not a big mod, but it's cheap, simple and I like it.

I agree with you, I would not recommend it for a DD, but off-road it makes for a much nicer ride without the bars IMO.
