You gotta ditch those rubber flappers and put some sweet exhaust tips on that thing right away!

OK about how much is that option going to cost me?

I am also looking at putting one of these mapping color screen gps on if I can fit it where the trim indicators would have gone if I had them:

How much do the tips run?

I had planned on possibly putting my own drive shower on. It looks simple.

Any +/- to the drive showers???

Thanks,

Dave

look at eddie marine,, things are a lot less expensive on there..

I don't know if there is a difference, but the dealer quoted me 560.00 for the gauge bezels, 550.00 for the swim ladder, and like 400 for the tips.

I'm thinking of doing my own gauge bezels, grab handles, and possibly swim ladder from Eddie Marine, along w/ their switchabe mufflers.

prices seem to be about half of what the dealer wants, the only thing i'm not sure of is the quality of their 250 dollar swim ladder, its just that 550 seems a bit pricey..

Chris232, The Sunsation ladder is well worth the price.. It's custom made to fit, and it's a quality item.. You will have to make modifications if you buy an aftermarket one.

Kanook, I agree, just seems all the uprgrades are VERY expensive,, If you order and install yourself through Eddie, things are about half, minus the swim ladder.

I saw it mentioned before that sun, uses a 5.00 walmart battery box,, dont remember who brought it up, but I think eddie has the aluminum offshore type for 69.00 bucks..

My 2002 didn't come with a W. Mart Battery box. I did how ever use one when I installed my second battery under the rear bench seat. I did that because if the batteries ever died, how would you get to them to jump them if you need power to raise the hatch. Besides, I think the battery and boxes are instaled by the dealers. So they vary from dealer to dealer , along with the types of batteries.

The new hatch rams can be lifted manually, incase of power loss.
