What is your favorite inexpensive mod to your T4R?

[Jeffrey_VB]

Of all the stuff I bought for my T4R, buying a cargo net was the most important - nothing worse than a jar of spaghetti sauce rolling when you open the hatch - the cleanup sucked!
Bought a cargonet the next day...

Amen to that!! I can't tell you how many groceries my cargo net has saved!!

:iagree:

I think that is a good idea. For example, I've heard many on here say that CAI's were overpriced, too loud, and didn't produce the results they were looking for. Others love them, however.

You probably have to give your local Toyota dealership's parts store a call.

where did you find the scoop? i want one on my SR5!

 

[purrfactor]

let yours get its butt kicked by softball size hail which requires massive part replacements, have the body shop replace the hood with the scoop one instead of the flat one

pm sent with more details

I just posted a WTB over on the FJ forum and some local guy said I could come pick them up. They were trashed and had some bad rock rash, but I was fine with that since I knew I was painting them. Some elbow grease and sand paper got all the rock rash out. I need to touch them up after playing in the rocks this weekend though, I added some rock rash of my own.

Just a quick note on that. With the dual 12v outlet console, each outlet is on its own circuit. The original outlet has a 15 amp fuse, and the added one has a 10 amp fuse. I thought the 2 would share the same fuse, since its just a plug and play install, but when my little one dropped a penny inside the open socket (I removed the cigarette lighter since I don't smoke) and blew the 10A fuse, that's how I found out. It's nice to have 2 circuits instead of one. Less chance of overloading the wiring or blowing fuses all the time.

Favorite so far is the cargo net. Inexpensive, looks great, and is not only saving my groceries from meeting certain doom on the driveway, but also stopping the tailgate inner trim from getting scuffed.

I put an LED light in the center console. It's one of those battery powered magnetic switch lights. When I open it it turns on. Only 2 or 3 bucks.

Cool - I like the sound of that. Any chance you could post a link to a place I could order one?
