Common Add Ons?

My CM should be ready to be picked up this week sometime.

My only question is what are the most common/desireable dealer add-ons out there?
I'm already getting floor mats and mud flaps, but what else is there? What is reasonable for me to ask for?

You mean ask for as freebies? I've never asked for anything - except a higher trade in value.

Floor mats and mud flaps are about as much as most people get, although if a boot mat is available for you car, you might ask for that as well. Some dealer are pretty generous with the nice license plate frames as well.

If you're having any factory parts replaced with dealer-installed parts, you should be able to ask for the factory take-offs as well (I got a grille, mirror backs, hood scoop, rear hatch handle, and the original dash panels just by asking for them, and then turned around and re-sold them or gave them away.)

True, I have been given the mats each time and for my '06 my MA through in my Aux input and iPod connection inside the glove box. But I didn't ask for them, though I did appreciate them.

After a certain date, the '06s started coming with the AUX input standard (at least in the convertibles), but your free iPod adapter was a nice add-on!
