Help me decide

Wife has given me the ok to spend some more money on the truck, got around $400 to spend and not sure what to get. I have been thinking tuner or seat covers (have 2 young kids) . Any other ideas or suggestions?

Well, if one if them is baby-small, seat covers are a no-brainer...

One thing I love having is LED backup lights. Dual 6" lights from rough country. Might could squeeze those in with seat covers.

Tuners on gas engines are just about useless unless the engine has forced induction. I'd find something that will prolong the life of the truck, such as anti-rust paint in wheel wells/frame or even a bypass oil filtration setup.
