What is your best mod???
 

I'm not talking about a part or piece you bought and bolted on, I'm talking about your original idea, creation, or part you made, created, etc. you can also include parts that are already being made but you did your own rather than buying it, kick panels with speakers are a good example, you can buy these all day but many people have made their own.

It can also be a part from a different vehicle you adapted to fit on our trucks.

Show us some of the ideas you are most proud of!!!

My answer to one peice side windows and a sport mirror. I made the peices and had them installed. They mount just like the vent window, back years ago.:chevy:

They look good but don't they create some terrible blind spots?

Re: What is your best mod???
 

Not my original idea, but I made power window regulators out of my stock manual units. There have been several members that have done this mod. I will post a pic of mint tomorrow.

Blind spots! No... Who looks through a vent window to drive? I don't. No problems at all. :chevy:

Tri-clops windshield defroster/defogger.

The center speaker is removed from my dash. Under the grille, I mounted one of those 4" computer cooling fans. This gives me increased air flow to the middle of the windshield, and help vent heat from the stereo.

Can you show some pictures of this and how it helps.:chevy:

Re: What is your best mod???
 

Great idea! I would like to see this as well.

I suppose this is my favorite. ;)

I guess my best mod to date on my current project is this past weekend I stripped the short step side bed of all the wood, cut the bed, and made it 6 inches wider to cover my cab in chassis dually. As you know these dually's never had any bed on them so this was the best solution I could come up with as I really didn't want to plop a flat bed on there.
Sorry no pics here, I do have it documented in my build thread "Meet Homer".

Re: What is your best mod???
 

I don't know. I hate to "crow" about my own stuff...But folks seem to notice/like
my under $50 wood bed floor.

I didn't think it would last. But I think its held up over three seasons of
light-moderate use.

Tonneau cover in the winter ...and tarps before top soil or mulch
goes in the bed in the spring.

Probably MY favorite mod was buying and tapping the mouse for RAT's air cleaner.
I'm goofy.

Seriously though, would have to say adding Hella headlights with relay harness has been the most functional/best upgrade I've done.

Not family friendly ....

Re: What is your best mod???
 

Can't really do any pics because it's buried under the top dash.
Basically, just replaced the speaker in the center of the dash with a small fan.
It's not tied into any original ductwork, just a fan pushing extra air to the windshield.
Cooling fans you find in computers and electronic gear, or used to find at Radio Shack :( Make sure they're 12 volt DC. Tapped into a power source (like cig lighter) and put a toggle switch under the heater controls.
I took a speaker sized piece of thin plywood, cut a circle out of it, and screwed the fan to it. Painted the top side black so you don't see it through the speaker grille slots on the top dash. I just kinda wedged, glued, and screwed the plywood into where the speaker was. This was done while the glove box liner and radio were not yet installed. I figured if there was no speaker there, why not use the space and existing dash slots for a center air supply. I just remember the times driving down the road, peeping through the two circles of a foggy windshield, wishing I had more vision.

Got this idea from a previous post. While I had my seat out to mount amp and speakers to the floor I added three layers of cheap carpet between the original foam and the springs. Firmed up the seat nice and more fun than dieting

Re: What is your best mod???
 

This is my amp and speakers. Sorry about last picture upside down
