    I came across Cupeez 3 or 4 years ago and have them on my Tacoma and wife's Murano. IMO great functional and cosmetic product, reasonably priced and the black accents looks good on my silver truck. I have 3 neighbor's buy them also, diamond rings are tough on door cups(?), gave me a good reason to limit diamond size.

    Nice rod holder. I wish our trucks came with 9ft beds so I could do the same.

    Been reading all these diy frugal mods and thought I'd add one which I'm sure has been done but it's hard to read 120 pages of comments. Mesh inserts behind my grill. I had some mesh lying around molded, painted and ziptied into place.IMG_20170124_213552360.jpg IMG_20170124_213541981.jpg

    I bought a couple ratchets for tieing down stuff. Wanted to put them in a bag. Had an idea. Use the legs from some old jeans. Wife sewed the bottom shut and insisted on the shoe string to tie things shut.

    If you put each strap in a quart ziplock inside the bag it keeps the hooks from tangling all the straps together. I have 4 straps in an ammo can and it's easy to get just 1 or 2 out.
