Best Modern Upgrades for 4th Gen

[chrisbagnell]

I have been looking at features newer cars have a lot more as of late and want to add them to the 4th gen.
Some examples are USB-C Charging, wireless charging, newer center console, 5th gen steering wheel, etc.
Upgrades that will modernize the interior of the 4th Gen.

What modern/5th gen upgrades have you done or want to do to your 4th gen!

some of the best things I have done to slightly de-age my 2003 are the 3 below:

-pioneer head unit with Apple car play (this has been a game changer and one of my all-time favorite things I've changed on the car)

-East Detailing steering wheel cover. Still can't believe how nice this came out even though I rushed the stitching. Covered up the chewed up factory wheel while adding some needed thickness to it.

-stinger offroad digital rear view mirror/dash cam combo. No more having spare wheel blocking rear view mirror look plus I now have front/rear facing cameras that run fulltime.

My favorite updates are:
-remote starter
-backup camera
-Dual USB plug that also has a voltage display.

I removed the useless little pocket door above the console and put the backup cam screen and USB plug in that spot.

I've contemplated doing the map light mod and lights under the car powered by the step light wiring that is no longer attached to anything.

Pioneer head unit with android auto, TPMS for all 5 ttires in actual lbs., back up camera with moving lines, usb/audio plug in one of the blanks on the console, updated speakers, updated sport/piano black steering wheel. There is more but not modern.

That was the best mod I have done. It should have come that way from the factory.

How did you manage to get the moving lines? I have a Kenwood DDX9905S.

Just purchased this to install in the back of center console for second row charging

The camera is on amazon.

I did the 5th gen steering wheel swap, Pioneer head unit with Apple Carplay (wired for reliability) and black interior. USB-C charging would be cool as well as a wireless charger. My next mod might be getting rid of the overhead DVD screen as no one uses DVDs anymore but that will involve buying a roof panel from a 4th gen without the rear seat entertainment.

Are you crazy? That's where the generic mp3 player from 2006 is stored and the usb cable gets pinched and routed to the radio

Maybe I'm a bit crazy, I assume you mean the little cubby I still think is useless.
