New Member - where to find stuff

I live in So. Cal and was hoping someone could recommend a good Cummins mechanic in the San Fernando Valley or Antelope Valley, or anywhere between.

Where can I find accesories such as an exterior sun visor and stainless steel wheel simulators.

How about changing out the the jump seats in a '93 to a bench. Recommendations, experience, worth it?

Modifications: Which one would you recommend first? Gauges, air filter, turbo, exhaust? A little background info: Truck has 186k miles on it, I have owned it for about 2.5 years. Runs great and well maintained. I use it to pull a 28' steel gooseneck horsetrailer on long hauls, around 1500 to 3000 miles a pop. Looking for more HP.

Thanks
