Upgraded the sealed beam headlights on our 1993 jimmy with a pair of clear lens headlights with replaceable bulbs from a wrecked Kenworth. They look like the ones you can buy thru LMC truck. They look really cool, and I thik they put out a brighter light beam. Oh, they were free.

Rplaced the steel spare rim with a matching alloy rim from the local u-pull and pay. $15.00 and it cleaned up pretty good. Next set of tire we are going to do the 5-tire rotation pattern.

-pcmforless tune $250, Love the way it shift, stays in higher gear better and alot easier to get it to shift down when the petal is press when you want to get going.
-Removing all the badges/door/wheel well trim, and the model badge(lt,ls) and the pinstripe. $detailing supplies to fix the scratches and few hours of time
-Clear corners $80(a bit high but could not find any that fit with fog lights)
-sound system $~600 stock system sounded like crap, and added 10in sub
-AD244 alternator upgrade with big 3 wire $150, stopped light dimming because of sub at high volume and fairly simple to do.
