What’s your favourite (non-tailgate damper) mod you’ve done, for under $100?

pretty much all that has been mentioned, yeah I probably have gone broke $100 at a time!
But my true #1 is the AAWireless module - how Ford cant update a head unit with BT and WiFi to support this is beyond me.

If only all my mods/upgrades where under $100, I would be able to buy Christmas presents for the family!
Really thinking about jumping into some wireless AA and charging.

Did you do the charging pad too?

In this thread full of accessories, it’s nice to see a true “mod”. ?

Mine is the free Air Dam Delete/Mod I did on my XLT - got rid of that skirt and used it to close the gap between the skid plate and valance.

Did I mention it was free?
Thanks Duke! Improving my Shrock sliders with safety lights are also on the cheap...less than $10 with 4 to spare... ?

Pretty simple, what sub-$100 mod, that you’ve done to your ranger, has made the biggest difference to your truck, or, have you got the most enjoyment from?

It’s a hard question if you’ve done a few.

Mine would have to be the black front & rear Ford badges. Made a bigger than expected difference, to the look of the truck.

You're really playing with fire not including a damper aren't you? :devil:

Ok even I can find something else that's second best which was the console organizer tray, I think it was around $15.00 on eBay. The little pencil holder we got was a joke and you can't do much with that deep hole without one.
Probably the cheapest (and best) were the vinyl pieces that went ON the original mod

If it can't be useful it might as well be pretty? :LOL:

Hard to take your advice seriously with that rocket sticker install. A little afternoon drinking that day? Drunk on TGD fumes?

No pics but very simple. I am talking about the wide spring steel paper clips with two handles. I epoxied one of the handles to the belt clip that came with the otter box. I clipped the paper clipped belt phone holder to the dash carpet. I added a velcrow strip to the dash carpet under where I clip the Phone Holder. In the design phase I wired the paper clip to the Phone belt holder till I got it where I wanted it then epoxied it.
