    What is the one mod you have done to your truck that you would recommend to any Tacoma owner and why?

    My best mod was my WeatherTech Digital Liners. The cost was low in comparison to others I've done, but it was my most functional. They save the interior floors and are easy to clean.

    Gas struts for the hood. If you live in a cold climate, the OEM heated mirror mod is essential.

    I'd have to agree with the rear view mirror bracket. I've done lots to my truck but that's the one thing that I think I'd really need. Really something you shouldn't HAVE to do but if you're tall at all the mirror in stock location is terrible and really gets in the way.

    First thing I did and most essential for me would have been tires. Those are long gone now but they made the world of a difference.

    Winch, front hitch, step bars, bed extender, bed step, gull-wing toolbox, tailgate lock, security system, cb radio, etc.
    Okay, in what way is those liners digital? Don't even see an on/off button. :D

    Anyway, I've done so many mods (winch, side steps, bed toolbox, bed step, cb, tailgate lock, etc), it's tough to come up with a single one to call best. Each is perhaps best in it's own way.
