What are the best (manufacturer, dealer-installed, or third-party)
options for a new 2010 Prius II, III, and IV?

What would be your reason or motive for selecting these options?

Thanks.

I added plastic rain shields over the front door windows. They let me crack
the windows in the rain without being dripped on. I got them from J. C.
Whitney.

I just posted about the rain shields and forgot to add that I wouldn't get
another Prius without the leather interior. I got cloth and my sister, who
bought one at the same time got leather. After 35,000 miles, My interior
looks very worn and used while my sister's looks brand new. Also, other
things I have found very handy include the rear view mirror with the built
in door opener buttons (3) I have programmed in my community's gate, my
sisters community gate and her garage door - very handy. I am also a fan of
the built in bluetooth connectivity. It works well and I much prefer being
able to answer a call from the steering wheel - much safer.

Ours are 07 Models. My friend , who has an 09 with a cloth interior, is
already seeing the wear on the interior.

Have you developed worn edges on the center console and the door arm rests -
I have. And my driver's seat (grey) has darkened and worn in spite of
weekly cleanings. BTW, I wear tan kaki trousers 99% of the time.
