    The LEDs are an awesome cheap upgrade, where ever you put them. I dont have a pic of the whole boat in the dark but here is a taste of what the LEDs look like. I will try to get a better pic when I get the boat put back together here in the coming weeks!

    A few under $100 mods, flag holder (in down position), speaker sox "SUPRA" tower speaker covers/wakeboard rack covers, and gator grip on the top deck of the boat. The gator grip is awesome, especially with the Z-5 when you need to tie something down or quickly grab something...prevents a lot of injuries! So far it has been bulletproof.

    FMAN, two questions. Where did you get the flag holder. Second, how satisfied are you with the speakersox? I just put an order together and its $150 for my speakers, mirror, and racks. Just wanted to see how much you liked them before I make my decision on if I want to buy them.

    I am not fman, but I have had speakersox (with custom embroidery) for nearly 4 years and they hold up very well. I have driven THOUSANDS of miles with them on the speakers
    at highway speed - they are out in the SUN 365 days a year and are still solid.

    Only complaint, the black is now dark grey. Other than that, for the money they
    worked great.

    (this is on my old boat - do they make covers to fit our roswell lightbar?)

    Ok, thats a pretty good review. I dont think mine would get as much "abuse" as what you are describing. It is only a 5 min drive to the river and it is in the garage most of the time. I think I will eventually get them. If any body else has experiance with them, lets hear it! This a good cheap mod IMO

    As Todd mentioned, the Speaker Sox products are a very good product. I put them on last year and have had no problems. Have had no color fading problems, but my boat is stored indoors, only outside when using it on the water.

    The flagholder I got from:

    http://newtproducts.com/

    Only recommendation I would make it get the 24" flag, not the 36", if you forget to pull the flag (which you will gauranteed) and drive the boat in the holder it will bend the flag pole, the 24" wont do this as bad. Nice thing about there flags is they all float as well. Another nice product.

    Hey Travis ... did you look into that "Tower Sock" at newtproducts?

    It would cover ALL the stuff up there, not just the speakers. I may look into that
    for when the boat is just sitting there ... like NOW.

    That looks cool, especially if you store your boat outdoors. I does cover up the light on the tower, but not a big deal. I wonder how much they want for those?
