Rubbermaid headrest hook: $5 at Target
Black plastic "milk crates" that I bungeed to the storage compartment under the rear seat for a place to set small items or a couple grocery bags to keep them from rolling all over the floorboard: $6 each at Lowe's (already had bungees). Crates are each 17" long so two of them are the exact length of the larger rear seat and smaller rear seat is still usable while crates are in place.
CravenSpeed Stubby Antenna: $25 from Amazon
Dee Zee Tailgate Assist: $25 from Amazon (tip: if anyone has trouble removing the T50 torx bolt from the bed, just apply heat. The bolt in my truck had thread lock on it and was impossible to move before I applied heat from a butane torch lighter directly to center of bolt for approx. 15-20 seconds. Easy peasy after that.)




Since I don't have the universal garage door opener feature, I double-side taped my standard clicker inside the front storage compartment of the center console. Keeps it handy but hidden. Cost: few cents for piece of tape.

I just did this with an extra antenna I had from a 2014. I cut it to 14", looks great, lost no reception. I used epoxy to put the ball back on the end, then painted the whole thing with satin black.

+1...I don't see it for $16.49 anywhere? Even Tasca who usually has great prices is $23.55 and with shipping is still more than Amazon.
