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.

Do you have the links to the crates?

Can I assume that these crates will fit with the seats down?

3d printed cradle for a QI charger on the jump seat console, no more plugging in the phone each time I get in the truck.



Cut and bent up some kydex to slip my IWB holster into.



Just hangs on the console, can slip the holster out when I get out of the truck.



Removed the headrest from the jump seat to make getting to the cup holders below easier to do.

No worries! I'm sure the majority of members of this particular forum are male, but girls drive trucks too. No offense taken.

No, but the single rear seat behind the front passenger can be down with two crates in place alongside.

After reading this thread I think I may start a GoFundMe page for just all these "under" $50
