Ok peeps, I was thinking about some features that the sc should have in order to make it more modern. Heres my contribution...
1. auto up /down windows
2. led lights
3. heated and cooled seats.
Any ideas ?

 

LED lights has been done several times. The other two would be worth figuring out and posting a DIY.

 

I added bluetooth handsfree and audio streaming to mine, something it seems that most modern cars come standard with nowadays.

The one touch up/down windows has also been done by a few of us, both mine are now one touch windows.

 

Didnt know that. I also would like to the newer steering wheels control the radio.

 

car to share with a link? I've been thinking about this but not sure if the product that is available is reliable..

 

The DEI 530t is the only one you need for both windows and it's very reliable. I've installed it in my past three cars and they worked flawlessly with each vehicle. Now it's not for those who aren't mechanically inclined, but any competent installer can put these in. The link with installation instructions are below:

My SC has all those features already lol. Only thing changed were LEDs

 

Here's my contribution in addition to the things already mentioned
-A double din touchscreen
-Brushed aluminum wrap over the wood trim
-Keyless entry system with push to start (not a cheap ebay one)
-Replace the screen of the climate control with a new one

 

A smart key retrofit would be most desirable.

It could probably be done but requires a lot of work. If you have the fob in your pocket and are within some range of the car you can open the doors and start the engine without the key by using buttons.

I am talking about using all OEM Toyota parts from a junked newer car; NOT some ebay garbage.

 

Brand new push button start from advanced keys looks amazingly stock! perfect for an sc since the ignition key hole is in the right spot

Haha, exactly what I was going to post up.

Here's a video of mine OP,

 

Man that's a nice get up looks a little different then sky drive push button start systems

 

^ This. I want this.

What required in the install? You mentioned completely removing your ignition?

 

Same I have auto down. Heated seats. On my 92. Just not auto up lol.

 

Do away with the 5 inch wheel gap and 15 inch turbine wheel and I'm good
