I know their is a post similar to this one, but I am in the same kind of boat.
I have a 2005 reg cab,black 6 speed, factory everything so far-BLACK.
I havent done any mods on it as of yet and I just got a bonus from my job and ive been wanting to get something done to my truck.

I was gonna post a poll but I want some in depth answers if that is ok.
I posted a pic a while back,id post again, but im at work and dont have the pics.

Here is what ive been thinking--

I have a 10' Pioneer that I have in a thunderbox that I had in my old Ranger and was thinking of getting that installed along with a new head unit and some speakers as one option. Does anyone know if the factory CD player will support a woofer and new speakers?And if not,can someone suggest a good head unit within reasonable price range?

I have the factory 17' chrome wheels and wanted to upgrade but know that will be way over $300 and wanted to get some black rims to black out my truck.

Was thinking side bars, but was going to hold out until I decided to get black rims to keep the blacked out look going.

Maybe a ******* cover and pay some out of pocket money for the hard cover to paint match.

Maybe some aftermarket power locks and windows as I have manual right now?

Im so torn but i know i wanna spend some cash to update this Ram!!

Any suggestions or opinions would be greatly appreciated!!

 

Get a CAI!!

 

Thanks for the suggestion, but im going trying to stick to the cosmetics right now first and then hit the big stuff up.
Much appreciated, keep em coming!!

 

Save the money for gas...

 

You can get an amp that accepts speaker-level inputs. Many amps have this feature, and allow you to tap into the speaker wire rather than pull out your head unit, although that isn't all that difficult either.

 

Black headlights or tailights? these are mine

Invest the money so you can retire earlier.
