I have added a few electrical touches to our truck and the one I like best is the RF Horn added so that we have a stock looking horn with a Toyota Steering box and no slip ring. Here's a pic of the transmitter just before the stock horn button goes on.

I ran across this thread while searching for another modification. Don't know how I missed it, but there's some really neat mods. I noticed that a lot of the darksiders have been very quiet for the last few months.

Maybe it's time for this one to be brought back to the top and see if we get any updates.

To add to this thread..... maybe my favorite modification was the fabrication of the bed, tailgate and roll pan for my truck.

It looks really good, nice work! I am not good enough to do this kind of a mod, but it looks cool. Mine is darksided mechanically.

wow, I've never seen this thread. Very cool stuff here. I don't have much skill or money so I'll submit a $2 mod. It's my homemade dead bug 5 speed PWM heater fan control.

I catch the most grief for the change we made in our rear lights. Our truck came with just these really small trailer lights on the back & no bumper. We wanted something more visible - so...

I like my 5.9 Cummins diesel ... shoe horned it in without cutting the firewall or floor. Put about 4k miles on it so far .... very happy with this swap!!
