Interior Mods???
Aside from anything electrical or light related, what has anyone done to their interiors?

Some people have wrapped CF on their trim pieces, and others have tried to go "VIP" with their interiors.

I swapped my base shift knob for the Type-S CF knob. I didn't think it would make as much of a difference as it has. I like it.
While you said "other than electrical", I want to mention the KP Window Rollup Module. I just love it!

Door lock mod - cutting the door lock nub down so it doesnt poke you in the arm when you lay your arm on your window sill while driving.

Ahhhh, the KP Window Roll Up module. Find it here: http://www.kptechnologies.com/products.php#/17 (mods, please delete if he is no longer a vendor). UserID on AZ is kpierson, I believe.
This unit wires into your door and allows you to roll the windows UP with a double click of your keyfob. I know, it may not sound like much, but once you get it you will ask yourself why it didnt come that way from the factory.

Not sure if this falls in the "electrical" category to you but how about upgrading your sound system?? Throw some 6.5" components and an amp in there...maybe a sub/amp if you want more.
