My wife wants a '10 w/ Scion springs and Alpine radio. Are there any other features considered must have that she should get at time of purchase? Maybe something that is hard to install for a DIY'r? She uses automatic car washes, so I am hesitant in getting the rear spoiler...

Thanks!

IMHO automatic car washes are not a good choice regardless of the spoiler. Hand wash is better and safer for your car's paint.

I would do the floor mats. Saves on wear and tear and depending on her style, get the rear mat too. Rear sway bar would be nice too !!! And I agree that HAND washes are better for her box than the automatics.

Well the box is ours. She bought wing, Alpine, springs, and bluetooth. Stingray... Seems pretty cool right so far, extras to be installed later this week.

Congratulations on your new ride!

Dont buy the TRD exhaust!!! It is a waste, Its ugly and poor sounding. For the same price you can get a nice exhaust from another company. The alpine unit is really nice, but slightly over priced. And the spoiler really sets the look of the XB, I wish i got a spoiler when i got my XB. I am running tanabe DF210 springs on my XB and it rides nice and smooth even on my TRD 19's, if you consider lowering it then i would go with tanabe. there are other good springs though too, K-Sport, Sprint, So on..The scion springs dont give you much of a drop, The tanabe NF210 springs are not as much of a drop as the DF210's but you still get the same drop as the TRD springs and still retain the good ride quality.

sway is good idea

if she gets the spoiler got get a shark fin. Right away looks so clean, with
