    I started with the bed mat, lockable bed cubby storage doors, dynamat soundproofing, door sill protectors, center console organizer, and front header bed rail. After almost 4 years, I did the interior LED lights and tweeters. I wish I would have done the tweeter upgrade on day one - I didn’t think it would have made much of a difference, but it was huge and makes the stock stereo passable now.

    I was shocked to find out that my 42k sticker price 2020 TRD Sport Long Bed didn’t have a home link mirror! I would rather have the home link mirror, but I opted to go this route instead, because the bezel over the dash is so easy to remove.....

    The button is kind of “out of sight” right above the Engine Start/Stop button, so if my truck would happen to stay out of the garage overnight, I feel better about there being no visual sign of a garage remote.

    Wow only 10? You got ripped off bud. Usually color-matched stickers will do at least +25.

    The instructions said +25 but when I put it on the Dyno its actual was +10. That's what I get for buying the Amazon knockoff. Proof again you get what you pay for

    I have one on and the port is always lit but it's just an led backlight and that won't do anything to the battery really. It will only drain a little when your'e charging something.

    I don't have a step but I make sure I leave my hitch ball on. In the past, it helped with small fender benders when someone would tap me from behind. Usually them being on their phone. No damage to my vehicle but they had a nice little kiss on their bumper where my hitch ball was.
