Here is a handy mod under $100... Remote starter. They're great for cold days when you don't want to freeze in the truck waiting for it to get warm. While I'm at it, you may find seat heaters for under $100.

Larger fuel tank swap is under $100? If so that's getting added to the list. I really wanted the 32

Deka battery don't get a 92 series they are expensive and crap selection with low CCA. I think I bought a group 34 which is smaller but has more CCA and is also an AGM battery. It has 120 RC instead of 140 like the stocker but I like that it cranks over a litte easier in -30's or lower. I have 4th gen but you get the idea.

your not happy with the thread? I thought its gone really well? We cant do everything for you. We just plant the seed, you adapt it for your truck and style and search for the best price.

Sorry if I came off that way. I was just trying to make this thread for everyone. Not directed to me for ideas. We have a thread like this on JF, and was just trying to get a similar thread here.

There have been several of them here
None of them really get enough attention to sticky and nobody ever uses the search function lol

Bed lights or any lights for that matter can be done cheap from eBay with patience in shipping lol
Air horns if you skip the compressor
Leveling kits usually although alignment will take you over

It's more than $100, but I've enjoyed the hell out of my train horns

are these plug and play? or do you need to add resistors?

took them out of the box and slapped them on. then pulled them off and shipped them to JJ for tint/paint. the slapped them back on with never an issue of any kind. No added anything needed.
