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

Maybe I should add this one. seven lights on each side @ $4.00 each = $56.00CAD. These are 3/4”. They fit perfectly into the holes in the rockers. I fished the wiring through the rocker to the underside of the truck. Although there are more holes, there is a piece of metal behind the rocker that prevents the light from fitting in. Really happy with the look.

Aesthetically, smoked grey marker lights. They really round out my blacked out carbonized gray exterior.
Functionally, the Carlinkit 2.0 wireless CarPlay adapter (though I have to also give props to the wireless charging setup by @DirkM such a great pair)

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.

For under a hundred bucks I really like this M2M grill panel. Cleaned up the front end nicely I think.

Me like but unfortunately does not work with adaptive cruise control

I am going to go with the splash guards I got on Amazon for $65 as my favorite cheap mod.

You can see the ACC module in the pic you quoted. It works just fine as it is plastic.
Just checked their website. It is powder coated stainless steel not plastic.

I want one of these, but I refuse to buy one with a coin holder in it. I feel like that’s maybe where my dad would keep his toothpicks, or where my grandfather would keep his Werther’s Originals. Maybe my great grandfather would have kept coins there, at the ready for parking meters or when he had to drive on a toll road. For me, it’s wasted space. Considering the smaller tray, but seems like it should be cheaper.
I’m probably overthinking this…
The center console tray I have was like $14, it does have a coin section that I actually use. Parking meters around here still take change.

Functional mod so far...my home-made tow mirrors...$54.00 total for 2 mirror heads and a piece of 3/4 inch square aluminum stock. Bracket is permanently mounted to bottom of stock mirrors, and mirror head and arms can be mounted or removed in under 30 seconds.
Power fold works fine and add-on has

no affect on operation.

Putco makes a metal one with the cutout for the adaptive cruise. I have that one on my truck.
Lots of folks here get the MTM one because for some reason it seems NOT to screw with the adaptive cruise even though it goes straight across it.
