Great pics! I always love seeing pics of the 45th inside and out. Even though I can walk outside and sit in mine, it's still so cool to look at. I'll never get over it.
Well one of my first suggestions is floor mats, lol.
But my first mod which I think should be everyone's first mod is the P13W LED bulbs. They make a WORLD of difference transforming the look of the car. If you walk outside and hit your lock/unlock button you'll see how the Halos stand out from the DRLs because the DRLs aren't LED, they're just regular headlight bulbs. Throw in those P13Ws and you'll be soooooo happy. I know I was!
I paid $45 for my set off ebay. No need to fork over $100 to specialty distributors and whatnot. Also for those wondering, you do not need the one's that have a harness. Those are for NON-RS cars.


As a future interior mod I'm considering getting a red "SS" sewn into my headrests. I wish Chevy had put the "45th" logo in the headrests as well as the seats. The headrests look kinda bland IMO.

Also I want to run the interior light behind the trim on the dashboard so it will light up with the rest of the car. I think that'd be sweet!

Congrats! You are now the owner of what I think is one of the best looking cars around (hence the fact that I own one too).

Welcome to C5.

Also ordered the backseat mats as well. Heck, no one hardly ever gets back there, but this is just good re-assurance for me.



Unfortunately I don't even want to drive out of my own driveway cause it's gravel (and 1 mile long) so it gets dusty every time.
However, I'm headed to my roommates house in the morning cause we're caravanning the 230 miles back to school and I'll hose the "Black Widow" off there.

Those mats look nice, I just recieved some 45th mats that I ordered I'll post some photos soon

I've heard about the 45th mats but have yet to see 'em. Look forward to seeing your pics when you get them!

I'm going with adding more Red SS stuff as opposed to specific 45th badges. I might end up blacking out the car so spicing it up with red SS badges should look cool IMO. Plus it runs with my whole "Black Widow" theme.

Floor mats look good, but i think I'd prefer the ones I've got now. The Blu LED looks great too.

High, I like your SS mats also. Do they make similar RS mats? I am considering LEDs for fog lights. Also, I have the mirrored stainless small gills (sigma shaped) that I have not yet put on, need some warmth to do that and haven't gotten around to breaking out the space heater.
