2004.5 parts we can use on our 2003's ?

[swivel]

Looks like they may be some parts we 2003 guys could "upgrade" to that come standard on the 2004. 5



Air cleaner box "heat blocker"



Hood insulation



Valve cover hold down bolt isolaters (need to see those)



Some of the 4" exhaust parts maybe?



I'm sure there are others but it would be nice to be able to add some of the "impoved" parts where feasable

I'm interested in some SRT-10 parts, too--specifically, the big red START button that goes where our cigarette lighter is. Others have mentioned the stock single-gauge plus grab handle A-pillar.



I wonder how readily available SRT-10 parts would be to order--I can't see the limited production run needing a lot of replacement start buttons

What's that?

The area in front of the air cleaner box is shrouded with an air blocker so that hot air off the radiator and from recirculation inside the engine compartment cannot pass to the air cleaner. Dodge claims an improvement of 30 to 40 degrees in inlet air temperature.

From the article.

Do you think the V-10 will fit?

I'm planning on tracking down that SRT-10 gauge pod, I just haven't gotten to it yet. Does anyone know if any SRT-10's have been delivered yet? I am not sure when they were supposed to be available.
