Tool box for me, cause you can keep all your belongings in there and lock it up.

I use my toolbox all the time on my Reg cab so if you use yours then keep it. Other wise Light bar looks better. Or sell your tool box and get a toolbox that fits in the bed.

IMO the light bar looks better. However, owning a regular cab myself, the tool box is a must.
