Hey everyone, just wondering what kind of little 'gagets' and other neat little mods anyone has done with their Zuke. Whats on your key chains (other than keys!).
Today I put in a neat little 8-ball shifter. Aesthetic yes, practical... yet to be decided. I have a huge set of keys, the two distinguishing things on it being a Florida souvenir with a pic of the everglades and my little Craftsman mini wrench.

I have half a stick of old RAM on my keychain and an actual weight bearing carabiner(sp?) :)
The other day I painted the numbers on my shifter knob and laquered it... turned out pretty neat, IMO. Need to get some pics of it.

Speaking of knobs, I've been meaning
to chip out all the white stuff that shows
the shifting pattern on the 4x4 knob, and
fill in it's place some bright color silicone
so it's visable again, I don't need it to
shift the T-case, but it would look nice.

I don't know of any self respecting Canadians who don't have a bottle opener on their key chains. Hell I got two on mine just incase one breaks. :P
As for the little things. I got a lot planned for mine, but I gotta hammer out some dents and lay down my new base coat first. (flat black baby)
I'm gonna paint some camouflage flames on the front of the truck. and some graphics on the back of the side mirrors.
Looking for some new shifter knobs. Skulls are too cliché in my opinion. So I want to find something a bit different.
I use to have a little toy tracker that fit perfectly in that space on top of the dashboard. But I got rid of it because it use to always fly towards my face when ever I was doing a bumpy hill climb or the like.
I like those custom foot pedals too. I saw one of those Foot shaped gas pedals at a store today. I may pick one up.
I also like the look of the shock botties on your pedal stems. I've seen a few trucks that have them.

Believe it or not, I have never had a bottle opener on any of my keys over the years.  And I respect myself very much so.  :P
As for me, I have a cell phone clip to the right of my instrument cluster so I can see who's calling me before I decide to answer it.  Great at night too, because when I'm blaring the Heavy Metal, I can't hear it ring, and my whole phone lights up nice.
I have spray painted the back passenger area, where the wheel wells are.  It was getting hard to clean and black paint was an easy solution to that.
I have small "Suzuki" decals with the "S" logo right above the Sidekick badge on both doors, looks very cool.  I have another small decal on the front bumper, centred, drivers side.
I replaced my original cluster because it didn't have a tach and I like the look of a tach. ;D
I repaint my rims once a year with some spray paint just to give them that new look.  I  sand off all the rust, wash them, let them dry and give them 2 coats of Tremclad or Krylon.
I want to put in a 12V socket to plug in whatever.
On My keys I have a small tag with the Suzuki "S" in red on a black background.  Took me forever to find one...only on Ebay.  *Loves Ebay*
I think that's all I can remember for now.

What kind of sound systems are rockin' your Zukes?
-
not much in my zuki....
I have phone clip for my phone cos i can't hear my phone ring over the sound sytem ;)
I have a electronic rust protector installed, works a treat (not sure if it is standard but my tracker is 11years old and the only rust i have is a lil in the engine bay, whick i have been dealling with)
erm, what else
ermm... thats all i think for now
-
i have a cd player(who knows what kind) and some aftermarket speakers all around. for the other question i have a Suzuki "S" grill symbol in my dash. looks great.

I have a very modest sound system. I have a Kenwood CD head unit 45x4 watts. Here's a pic:

I have two 100 watt Pioneer 4" speakers in the front and two Pioneer 350 watt 6x9" in the rear.

I'm going to get a more powerful head unit with MP3 playback, as that is pretty much going to be the standard. Plus you can fit like 4-6 albums one CD in MP3 format. :o
I also wouldn't mind getting a woofer system with an amplifier just so I can get that extra power for when I am at the beach or playing hacky sack with the boys and wanna hear some tunes.

key chain, besides keys the only thing i have is a P38 on it. i have a Stomper toy on the dash, its a vw bug, they didnt have trackers back then. and so far i am proudest of my 3rd break light from a gmc full sized van and my x4 washers. every one knows i dont have a stereo system and there is nothing that says any company name or logo in or on my car. its just me. ;D

My girlfriend's step dad is like that, he hates logos on cars and trucks...well at least he used to until he got his '97 Pathfinder last year and is more or less in love with it. I think he might change his name to Nissan. ;D

Only one key on keychain. Two power outlets where the ashtray was. Extra interior speaker for CB. Extra briter domelight,

-
no ricer ness happening here.... its black all black but it IS loud and reves high its got beadlocks those arent rice man it has like no rice about it really...!...
-
Some people deem all aesthetic modifications without doing any work to the engine rice. But then again, this thread is really about all of our "rice" :)
-
the only thing that doesnt serve a puprose is the logos/letters on it and those were juits for fun... im a bit of a goof ... it has a poink muffller lol (the skull shifter is on there cuss i broke the handle off and couldnt turn it so i bought one from a sale rack at candian tire for 6 bucks...)
-
I am going to add a ball mount for my GPS. And maybe replace the floormats!
-
Hmmm... Key chain is a load-capable climbing carabiner(650lbs.). I've added a set of deep channel floor mats, blue lighted APC aluminum pedal covers(light burned out of the clutch pedal long ago) and I have a cell phone hook right in the middle of the center vents. I also run blue camo seat covers, wheel cover, litter bag and visor organizer. I have a high power sony cassette head unit, stock front speakers, Sony xplod 6x9"s just above the rear wheel wells and a 6"bazooka tube behind the rear seat powered by a California Profile 200 watt amp that hides under the driver's seat. I have the amp's remote turn on lead run through a switch on the dash so I can remove the speaker for hauling without having to unplug the amp. I also added a multiple outlet lighter plug box under the driver's seat to plug in spot light, cell charger, etc...
