Funny you should make this thread as I was just talking to my wife about starting one about what Santa (MIL) brought me for Christmas for the X.
Here is what I got to help me with the work I do on my X and all my other vehicles.
Thanks Stewart for the comments about the wrench, I look forward to precise torque specs.

I cant compete with this awesome digital wrench, but my wife bought her EX
a flexible, yet very sturdy mounting bracket for a IPAD3.
Great navigation in an awesome scale now......
Very simple but fits and hold it perfectly
I will make some pics after fitting it in the EX.
BTW
Merry Christmas to all from Good 'Ol Germany

I was feeling bad cuz I was late by 1000 miles on an oil change. When I took it apart I found the filter was dated 05/2010. Geez people lied so bad. Fresh oil and then I broke out the big wrenches.
My bumper is bent on the front but I took it apart and pried it straight so I could add my front tow hitch. I wont even miss those driving lights. I am looking at better fog lights anyways. Now I can mount my winch, snow plow, kids when they are bad, or whatever else I want up front.

Santa must have used an Excursion rather than his sleigh this year..
My ex got:
Red-head steering gear
roadmaster active suspension(RAS)
Gendex rear view mirror w/backup cam
Backup camera
I'm gonna be busy in January!
By the way, a big thanks to the folks at ras, they walked my wife through ordering it and told her how great she would like riding in the ex afterwards...

- Red Head steering box, which will maybe be installed this weekend
- Staying warm and clean in the garage out of the salt!
It needs a few other things, but I haven't bought it all yet.

Mine got my wallet, bank account, and way too many things in it's stockings. (and believe me a Ex has HUGE stockings)
It is a spoiled glutton.
I have to keep it happy cause I'm afraid it will get mad and run me over if I don't.
