Favorite mod for under $200? That's tough. . . I guess it depends on what I'm using at that moment. However, here's a few of them:

Fire Extinguisher Mount quick release: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QBPMLRP?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_dt_b_asin_title

First Aid Kit for back of Drivers seat (quick release from the Rubicon Molle system): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08936YDXG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Wireless Car Play (love this guy): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086JN1SGX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Back storage organizer (drivers side) for my recovery gear: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08974VL4H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Sunshade Top (for under my SOT): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07KM139Q6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Bolt Hood Lock (highly recommend if you live in the city and love that it uses my factory key): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QY8JVT3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Also have to have the locking gas cap: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BQG4JHZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Better have these to keep the wheels on in the city: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CGN68XW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Rugged Ridge Entry Guards (cover way better than most so you're not scratching your paint):
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L5WBR66/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Dress up the pedals with a little bling bling: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QK66TJD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Key for organizing the center console: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SDNFKN4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

More organizing - Great for the GF's cell phone and lipstick: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X75B362/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

More for the center console - shocked at how well this fits and works. . . . very solid: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0836FMN64/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Tuffy Tailgate Box (admittedly over $200 - sorry): https://www.tuffyproducts.com/product/578/tailgate-lockbox-jeep-wrangler-jl

Got this and mounted it inside of my Tuffy Tailgate box to mount molle stuff to. Just pop riveted it in. . . . Works great for mounting stuff inside the tailgate. Toying with the idea of mounting one on the outside too. We'll see. . . . https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003CG9QFY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Phone Holder (but used only the arm and replaced the actual holder with one that charges): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0814RDLFK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Used an actual holder that charges from ProClip: https://www.proclipusa.com/category/iphone-car-mounts

But of course, you got to protect your screen: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BRGMVXT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Absolutely love these guys for storage in the rear from XG Cargo. They are AWESOME: https://xgcargo.com/products/jl-gama-rear-storage-bags

Probably my favorite mod however was the Hot Head Headliner for my SOT. Admittedly over the $200 limit by a few bucks. . . Makes the cabin so much quieter and also temp controls. Give the top a "finished look" For the life of me, can't figure out why Jeep didn't ship the top this way from the get-go: https://hotheadheadliners.com/products/sky-one-touch-headliner?variant=32640499843138

Anyway, hope these help. . . .
Which wireless apple car play adapter did you buy? Didn't see one for Jeep/Chrysler/Fiat/Whoever they are these days

Got it from Amazon. Works great: CarlinKit 2.0 Wireless CarPlay Adapter U2W for Factory Wired CarPlay Cars, Compatible with Audi/Porsche/Volvo/Volkswagen Online Upgrade, iOS 14, Convert Wired to Wireless CarPlay https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086JN1SG...abc_XN3K8AMS2N3MEDY66GXM?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I got this today and it's done nothing but constantly reboot, flake out, and ultimately cause CarPlay to go completely insane on the uConnect even with a hardwire connection now.

I am trying to update the FW, but if it doesn't improve I'll be sending mine back.

Has it continued to work well for you?

that actually looks really cool with just the top black and everything else yellow. wouldnt mind seeing some more pics.
I agree. Where did you get the wrap? I might consider doing a wrap on my rear fenders. They get hammered with rocks. Maybe I could wrap right over the chips and just replace it every year or two when it gets chewed up.

Well.....this was an expensive thread. $200 X 35 different things I now want to buy for the Jeep that I haven't even bought yet!

Great suggestions.

Where did you find a Front Hitch Receiver? I've been looking, but can't seem to find one.... I'd like to use a winch cradle so I don't have to leave the winch permanently mounted.

Ok, just like the title says...what's your favorite mod or gadget you got on your Jeep that was under $200

I'm sick....I'm already shopping mods for a Jeep that is not even here until May probably :crying:

Definitely my remote start, I use it everyday https://amzn.to/3h7LdCw
