and how much do they cost?

i got a 2002 SC/SE model. i want to 'customize' it a bit, but don't know where to start...plus i want to keep some $$ in my wallet for living necessities etc...

start here... xterraparts.com

and consider what you need, what you want, what you need and want, and what you just plain shouldnt have, but youre gonna spend the damn money anyways on despite what anyone says... everyone has their own needs...

I haven't done much myself.. Don't need the ARB and shit for the minivan..

My favorites are the Steelhorse console(cupholders suck, though) and the Sportster bar(thanks Long)..

cool...any links or pics of those?

i went to xterraparts.com, the windshield deflectors and the PIAA lamps are definitely on my list of 'to do's'...as are the tow hitch (very handy) and some sweeter tires.

I love the auto dimming mirror. Tires [Pirelli Scorpions] and Lights [PIAA 520s and 1500s] are up there too. And a good sound system is a must.

Smaller things like the incabin microfilter, rubber floor mats, cargo protector and seat covers are always popular.

I love my westin safari bar. See pic below. I also painted my steprails and roofrack black (after the photo was taken)to match the super black and it looks sweet. I have the window guards and it is nice with a black truck to be able to crack the windows a bit to help release the heat. I also have the piaa super white replacement bulbs and while you can tell the difference in the light output I am still not sure if when they burn out I will replace them with the piaas. Just a bit pricey I think. Anyway get what you want and only what you want. Do not get something because someone else has it. Its your truck.

Now get out there and wheel damnit!!



Roof rack and rails black

Sorry the westin safari bar and kc lights came to around 300 total for both if you add shipping. The painting car vary on what you use, cost me 20 dollars and my labor.

Cupholders suck harder than a Hoover though.. Got to get around to doing Xcanuck or rrdstarr's cupholder mod soon.. I'm lazy..

Here's the bar..



Can anybody shrink this image?

Hey! I've seen that X somewhere before!

If you want bigger cup holders without cutting, I remember steelhorse used to sell a cup insert that raised the sides and let you hold bigger cups.
I've added alot of little things, the only one that didn't work for me is the overhead bin in the cargo area.

Steering Stabilizer. Nice cheap mod but the benefits are TOTALLY worth it.

Since you have the SE - invest in the THOR MOD

You'll be happy you did

next size larger tires, surco rack, 6 Hella lights on rack, HAM radio, CB, front and rear receivers, Westin Safari bar w/ Hellas, tinted windows, Neoprene seat covers, pet divider, Dynomat in the doors, separate door speakers, Alpine amp, vent visors, gps, radar,anti car jacking knife mod............etc

do you have to have an SE to do that? isnt it just a clear deflector that all XTERRAS have?

I've never really looked at that coolerman mod before. Looks pretty useful. I was just wondering, is there a way you could turn it on with a switch rather than being connected to the main lights? And since I have a Canadian X (lights always on), that would mean the LEDs would always be on as well right? Or do they only come on with high beams?

Thanks.

Edit: one last thing, have alot of people put in these LEDs? any feedback on them?

Cdn DRL are hooked to Highbeams.. the only thing it screws up are offroads lights/ accessories connected to highbeams with a relay.

Bumper mounted Bottle Opener

Where can I get one?
Pierre

is there a point to a clear deflector if you have no sunroof?

Not really too modded 'X'cept for the 31 BFG's All Terrains and the SLR rear 2in shackels and torsion bar lift up front...But damn I love it and inexpensive.

Huevos

The LED kits hook into the dash lights. If the dash lights are on they are on. It would be possible to have these turn on with a switch. It would raise the cost of the kit however If you want I can look into this for you. Do you have a switch in mind?

Only if your dash lights are on when the Daytime running lights are on.
Check out the kits here: CoolKits

Do a search for this, several people have installed them and so far I have not sent anyones money back!
