    WHAT ARE YOUR TOP 10 AFTERMARKET ACCESSORIES?

    So what are the top ten things everyone thinks we should have in/on our vehicles..
    I think it could be quite interesting to see where this goes and collate a top 10 or 20 after a reasonable time..

    So I would think it could be something like...
    1. Bull bar
    2. Spotlights
    3. Snorkel
    4. UHF CB
    5. Snatch strap
    6. Exhaust jack
    7. Long handled shovel
    8. Winch
    9. Recovery Kit
    10. Side steps
    (this list just off the top of my head, could include swag, good torch etc etc )

    So, what are the top ten (or more if you want to) things you would recommend to someone to carry/have if asked?.
