    Start a mod fund. Save your $150. Wait until you have enough for something good. $150 won't go very far towards making your truck badass. Now if you can fab some of your own stuff, it may work out for you.

    Otherwise, keep an eye on this forum (paying attention to the free thread)... http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/buy-sell-trade/

    CB radio/PA system...I put it in this past weekend with RecklessTaco and spent just under $100 for all the components/connectors. Got some pics in my build, but there are other videos and threads on the install. I'm still a bit of a noob with all this stuff too...but it is an addiction...the mods that is :D. Fun as hell tho

    Welcome!
