Just to be clear, pun intended, the front passenger windows on our EX-L are darkened glass.
mine are clearly tinted. came from dealer in Orlando w/it....

not sure the moonroof needs it unless you are in a SUN state and don't plan on using the cover. i've had moonroofs for years, never got it tinted.

mudflaps and cargo tray were an immediate need for me. then i found out the dealer added them and they were not listed on the invoice. :)

1st purchase was good weather floor mats.
then replaced backup lights w/LED.
then doorsill protectors - CRV logo w/no lights. my brother had patterned rubber on his truck - came on the Toyota. I would have gone patterned rubber, but had already ordered the CRV logo ones.

If someone beside you opens their door you will notice that where they hit is usually not where the mouldings are. Mouldings are usually too low to give any sort of protection.

Paint protection so you no longer have to wax. Can also apply it to your rims and lights so water and dirt just slides off. Some people apply it to their windows but it distorts the view slightly so I didn't do it.

Went with Opti-Coat and it’s great. Repels water like crazy, no longer have to go through the process of waxing, just use quick detailer after washing and that’s it.

This looks interesting but not sure if I would be annoyed if I need access to the usb ports or power outlet and have to take the entire storage area out.
I want some organization or dividers but dont want it to interfere with the current functionality or block the usb and power outlet.
i'm interested to see how this one works out... i miss the change holders.

I really miss my Ash Tray. I use to keep my change and dollar bills in there. Saved my butt on a few occasions when the Gas was low and I had left my wallet at home. I could always depend on $10 or more in bills being in there, plus lots of change. All of it out of sight.

I plan on this being the last vehicle I probably buy ( :geezer: ). I kept my Accord for 17 years. had leather seats. after about 5 yrs it start ripping on the sides. and being in FL, and in shorts most of the time, i kept sticking to the seats. i didn't want to deal w/the ripping (mostly) and sticking anymore... and tired of towels-seat covers were tough due to the airbags from bk then. the salesperson had someone who wanted an EX with leather seats. so swapping them out gave him 2 sales and 2 happy people.
my brother had a Suburban with leather seats... after 7 or 8 yr they were so wore, he said, never again.

I know... weird, but happy.

Thanks. Yeah, it sits flush in the back. The silicone cupholder protectors have a piece that fits in that area that was raising it slightly, so I removed it so that the organizer would sit down in the correct position and have the proper clearance. I can slide the shelf/tray back and forth without any problems. The holder itself kinda feels like cheaper plastic, but it's still worth the money to have the organization.
looking for clarify plz. boooey asked if it "sit flush to the bottom of the console". and you said "sits flush in the back". to me that is 2 different spaces addressed.

if you worry about the back...
My brother's Tundra was rear-ended by a 2013 Ford Escape. my brother has one of those Weathertech BumpSteps.
Escape was totaled - front airbags went off. the only damage for replacement to his truck was a bumper w/trailer hitch, bump step and slightly dented rear gate.
so if you have a trailer hitch, those BumpSteps are a great investment.
