Let's see your frugal DIY mods!

I agree, i use that small one for my iphone

 

Or just cut out that stupid tiny cop holder and put a man size cup holder in:

 

Back to the frugal mods, I'm picking up 3 ammo cans for $20 today. Hopefully I'll have time to spray and mount them to my bed this weekend

 

Not a big hole, just enough to get the wires through.

 

Well done sir.

 

I know it is on here somewhere but what is the bolt size people us to slide in the rail system?

 

Lol, that's exactly what thought! Second thought was large sheet of quilted northern toilet paper

 

Been planning to do something like this for some time now. Instead of drilling a hole in the door panel, I plan to bring the wire out between the door and the panel.

 

Ive seen those when searching, but Im not a fan.

Thanks. I used those LED strips in my center console to light it as well as the bed bed.

Doing puddle lights off the side view mirror was my other idea, Im just worried about the light not being bright enough/too high off the ground on a lifted truck. I need to find some LEDs that would work them mess with them to see if theyll be bright enough.

Im also kickin around the idea of doing puddle lights off the mirror and door both. The mirror ones to light on unlock and the ones at the bottoms of the doors to shine on the ground when the door is opened.

 

5/8 inch carriage blot will fit with some modification.

 

That's a good job, LUSETACO. Very clean and I bet that makes things a lot easier.

 

The little button/bolt leds might have enough throw from the mirrors, the strips definitely don't. Plus the buttons would look nicer being little bumps rather that some ugly epoxy strip.

There is always this, you can customize them too.

 

Love this thread.
I posted my version of A/C back seat platform thread about dog platforms.
I had some TREX remnants, bought some aluminum angle and flat stock.
Fast in and out, or just roll forward for acces to storage. Can still store in foot wells.

 

That looks great tsjesme!!!

My 09 doesn't have the rubber inserts. It came with the adjustible divider

 

Did you buy the truck new?

 

Im gonna do some messing around/brainstorming after work tomorrow and see what I came up with. I found trunk light lenses from a VW that sit pretty flush and may work

 

Thanks for the info. What is the easiest way to modify them?

 

Bench grinder is what I used
