Cheap mods you are proud of

Added 2 extra locks on my toolbox and bolted my spare through the bottom of the toolbox. A little extra security.

 

Yeah I took mine off as they were getting ripped off in washouts anyway and acted like an anchor in deep snow. Otherwise I would have left them on.

 

$205 from Amazon.
I think it was a bargain and a useful one at that. Far more useful than a shift knob or other fluff. YMMV.

 

Yep, I’ve seen now they make different sizes that are already cut down for fingers and smaller breaks. A wonderful invention for sure and really lightweight so it makes it easier to carry.

 

I got RokBlokz and they’re are very flexible. I’ve always taken mudflaps off but after being pulled over many times due to no mudflaps on my first gen 4Runner I decided to stop that trend. I hate the rigid ones the Tacoma comes stock with and decided on the rokblokz after doing some “research” on mudflaps….something I never thought I’d do.

 

Back in 2016 I insulated the sunglass holder.

 

I have the RokBlokz XL flaps and I agree they are plenty flexible when being dragged while off roading.
Though I decided to trim mine down because of how often they did drag.
I cut them flush to the outside of the tires and shortened them by about 3 inches

I’ll bite…
Why?

 

How did you insulate the sun glass holder?

 

Those look great trimmed I may have to steal that from you!

 

What was your experience after cutting the exhaust? did you notice any changes?

 

Trimmed rek gens

 

To keep my metal framed sunglasses from scorching during the summer.

I had some leftover garage door insulation and just cut to size. Pulled the overhead console out and put the insulation behind. It's think enough to fit nicely.

This is really cool
Noticeable difference?

 

None - except I don't worry about smashing my exhaust on the trail and feeling a bit smug when a friend in his Wrangler smashed his - the same friend who didn't say anything about me cutting it off but just smirked . . . kind of . . . when I told him about it before we hit the trail when he proceeded to smashed his exhaust. . . . I smiled . . . . kind of.
