Default While you're at it - Carpets

Morning all,
Lookin at replacing my interior carpet. Provides an opportunity to troubleshoot gauges and radio problems.

Considering converting manual windows to power, installing a hide-away MP3 player, maybe install new speakers.

Anything else I could/should consider doing while I have all that stuff out?

As always, thanks for the input!

Thanks - trying to plan ahead as much as possible.

A remote keyless entry system? They're certainly handy! Plenty of space in the center console for the control unit and all of the wiring needed for a basic installation is reasonably close.
