Other than throwing charcoal carpet in my tan interior, lol, the extent of my interior mods are just putting things in handy places.

BT mic.


Argument deterrent.


And my super custom storage system.

Sleek setup you've got there, but I can't wrap my head around the gun...where is the hammer on that little guy? Maybe my brain just isn't working.

Lol, there's no hammer. It's a S&W Airweight .38 DAO.

Interesting! I guess the hammerless design means no hammer to snag on stuff...any other notable benefits/drawbacks?

Not much really, the low profile sights and DAO trigger keep it a close range weapon. Lol, but it's a snub .38 so that's kind of a non issue anyway.

Gotcha. That's a great-looking little tool, for sure.

Yeah I like it. I usually stay away from DAO triggers, but S&W did this right. Pull is long of course, but very light & smooth with a predictable, clean break. Easy to keep a tight group at 20 yards or less.

And I traded a beat up old Eotech for it, lol, so that's a win in my book.

I don't really have much, but it works for me. I have an old ammunition box that my grandpa made into a tool box when he was in the military in England, and has since been passed down to me. I have all my recovery stuff in it as well as miscellaneous bolts and such. Other than that all I have is my one switch for my lights and my tiny bear on the mirror that no one notices.

I like the ammo box toolbox, very nice. Lose the claw hammer though, it has no place in a mechanic's toolbox. Reminds me of a work story. Had a new helper come in, he was working in home construction before he started at our company. I work in ship repair btw. First day on the job we're talking about tools, I see he has a claw hammer in his tool bag. I quietly told him to take that home and buy a ball peen hammer, trying to help the guy out. He laughed me off. The other guys saw it and started ripping into him. Before the week was out, one of the guys tack welded a bunch of scrap metal to it and threw it back in his bag. That guy was pissed when he pulled it out of his bag. He brought a ball peen in the next week.

Just found this thread and thought I'd add to it. I have cup holders straight from Quadratec that work great, and some green LEDs for the dash/shifter lights. The coolest thing is all of my stickers covering the dash and glove box (I'll have to get pictures of that). I also did a ghetto rigged grenade shifter

i plan on bedlining the trunk and adding rear cup holders. I love all the little things that I do to my interior

Latest interior change was setting up a mount to get my trail jack off the roof.

One more custom thing on my rig - a custom XJ screensaver on an older Pioneer OEL display head unit. Was hunting for one for quite some time, got it for cheap because it was not working. One blown cap, a new ribbon cable, and some nano fuses and bam, she is back up and runningn!
Still need to get the bezel mounted and figure out what to do about the peeling chrome "accents". Might try to remove the rest of the chrome and mask + spray paint it at some point. Also need to try and polish out the plastic, I didn't realize how scratched it was until I watched the video on my computer.

Made a quick video
