    This three pod bracket I found on Amazon is my favorite small/cheap mod. It was between $15-20. Has two USB quick charger ports, voltmeter, locking 12v and on/off switch (kind of redundant but it came with the bracket and you can interchange the pods easy). Charges my iPhone 11 great, has an extra port so my gf can keep her Samsung shit separate from mine. The voltmeter made things easy when the stock battery was dying.

    I have a '17 manual so my lower panel only had a USB, 12V and Qi Button and had a lot of extra space between everything. I could have bought the switches that look stock but I liked this more. The plastic trim looks identical in shade and texture to the stock panel plastic. I can pull the bracket and have a little window to change things out without having to disassemble half the dash. And I think it adds a little character to an otherwise boring looking console area. IMG_0529.jpg

    These. I've put these in every car/truck purchased.
    I've cursed too many times and ripped skin trying to wiggle out shit dropped between the console and seat. Shit always falls the perfect place where you can't reach it.

    - OEM Bed Mat is great.
    - Black metal letters in tailgate.
    - Hondo Garage iPhone holder.
    - RCI sliders (not cheap, but awesome)

    I bought this one on Amazon.

    EDBETOS Glove Box Organizer for Toyota Tacoma

    I found that I had to glue the dividers to the main part of they fell out every time I opened the glove box. I don't know if all of them do that or not.

    I bought this set, probably the best thing I've gotten for the truck lol And it's made in Murrica
    $43 Vehicle OCD - Center Console Divider, Tray, and Glove Box Organizer for Toyota Tacoma (2016-2023) - Made in USA - SLX501

    Other than that, Subaru tweeters and new door speakers really helped sound system.
    Sound deadening on all of the doors, which quieted down the road noise and now it doesn't have that cheap hollow tin can sound when you close the doors.
    Fixed the pots and pans noise coming from the clutch slave cylinder shield.
