If you're in a tropical climate the "wind deflectors" are a must have - they allow you to leave the windows down an inch or so without risking getting the interior wet in a sudden shower of rain.

Not having them means coming back to a car that's 120+ *F, tint is also a must have for similar reasons.

Everyone's needs will vary, but I wouldn't bother with any of those upgrades listed. I've fitted loads of upgrades/accessories over the last 3 years, many of which I've subsequently removed, but of those that remain, the ones I'd recommend and happily buy again are:

1. Escape Gear canvas seat covers.
2. Rear speakers.
3. Adjustable intermittent wiper stalk.
4. Dynamat sound deadening
5. Reversing camera.
6. Yokohama G015 A/T tyres in 215/75R15

+1 on the Escape Gear seat covers. Excellent craftmanship, also rids of 'static' shocks when you exit the vehicle in the summer!

I recommend a Disklok steering wheel security/theft deterrent.

When I swapped the tyres on mine it stopped the electric shocks.

Why any of them?

It's good straight out of the box, so just use it for a while and see what sort of issues you encounter and what's available to improve.

That is unless it's purely cosmetic changes you are after, then let your imagination run wild and have fun. 

Yokohama Geolanders, Sony head unit, NAUTILUS Air Horn, DRL conversion, Rear cargo space, Elvis Bobblehead, transfer Guard, Indian hanging Elephant, Koni Heavy track dampers, Custom SS exhaust, Voodoo Doll, Adventure Rack with LED ight bar, vintage ERIBA caravan usually attached (yes it's slow)
