    I got a whole non-ADD front axle assembly for $100, then when I switched my truck to manual hubs I sold all of the ADD parts for $200.

    I think these $30 LED fog lights I am using as reverse lamps have panned out quite nicely. Just make sure to run a bead of clear silicone around the edges of the lenses.

    I added a wheelskinz cover. Hated the feel of the cheap plastic.

    What can I say. I'm a diva

    Don't have one handy but check out their website. Pics galore.

    I have a tan interior and got their tan leather. Perfect match.

    I'm very happy with it. It's the closest thing to factory leather you can get imo.

    I just stitched my leather wheel cover on this last weekend. It is the grey interior but I put a black leather cover on...since that's all they had at the Pep Boys not too far from my house. I've been putting these on all of my vehicles without leather steering wheels for the last 30 years. If I get good light, I'll try to take an image or two.

    886 mod is one of my favorite cheapo's. With tinted windows, it's a world of difference backing up at night.

    Here's a tut that's an alternative. Those wheelskinz covers look like a pretty good deal though:

    I'd have liked Pep Boys to have had the grey one in stock, but I just didn't want to wait for their inventory to be restocked and I didn't want to wait to order one on-line. I'm happy, but I would have been happier with grey.

    Just an FYI, 2001-2004 horns don't sound like mopeds. You might be able to find one cheaper at a junk yard.

    I never wanted to use my horn in my 98, and I'm soooo much happier that my 01 sounds like an actual car and not a moped.
