Sorry, I may have made an assumption there.
I, too have a 2016, could we swap the newer swtiches from a 2019 or newer LC like the ones below?

I don't have one of these but thought it looked interesting. Comes in various sizes.

 
Favorite, best upgrade. Take the oil filter drain nipple thing, that you shove in, go to hardware store, buy appropriately fitting 1 ft length of cut tube that fits on it and use for future oil changes.

If you like that, you’ll love the brass version for $15 on Amazon that doesn’t make any mess.

Cheers!
Will the cooler insert fit a 2021?
 
First modification to the 200:

BH3D cup holders.

I went with the Dual Flask version that will hold two Nalgene or 40 oz. Hydroflask bottles.

Well worth the $75 price tag. It’s hard to believe that a well-engineered truck has such poor OEM cup holders, but this seems to remedy the problem. As a bonus, I found the two removable inserts fit well in the Cool Box console when not required.

Just a PSA, be careful how much stuff you put in this thing, try to keep it light. And don't slam the lid down if you have it too full. The thin "lip" that holds it above the cooler box is actually pretty flimsy, mine is now broken more than half way around (due to overfilling), and it's starting to fall down. I'll have to order another one soon.

I've since pulled a lot of the lesser-used items out, they're in a Tupperware in the glove box now.
 
Sorry, I thought everyone knew about these....

Aside from the convenience of airing up multiple tires at a time, I think the best feature is equalizing air between tires and making them the exact same pressure.

- All 5 air entry points are default closed, so air won't move until you use one of them.
- connect as many tires as you want, and the highest pressures move to the path of least resistance until they are all equal.
- add air to the tank valve like you would a regular tire (and check your pressure from here)
- don't go crazy long with your air hoses, only cut to length that you'll need. This will minimize wasted air from filling up all the hoses.
- you can also use 2 of the chucks to move air from your max inflated spare to another tire without the use of a compressor.
- don't forget to use the tank valve to release all of the pressure out of the hoses when you're done using it.

I like to wrap the clamps so the cut ends don't scratch anything.

Thanks for this idea. It took me a long time to get around to making it, but here is my version (I need to get better fitting clamps, then wrap them in tape):

I did the same in January, although I had a local detail shop (New Image in Denver, CO) cut the XPEL to cover just the metal door sill. Looks stock and will be much more durable than the shiny aluminum!

I just scheduled mine at New Image for next week. What did they charge you (if you don't mind me asking)?
