I'm looking to purchase a 99 V70 and I've got a few of questions for you current wagon owners.

Roof racks
1. Salesman said they can add roof rails. What's a reasonable price?
2. Since I plan on adding cross bars, should I just use Thule towers and leave it at that?


Trailer hitch - will want to add one of these, but have done them myself on all my trucks so install is no problem
1. Which style is preferred
2. Are 99's pre-wired? or so I need to buy a kit? and who sells them at a reasonable rate

Tires
Currently all four do not match. 3 are Michelin MXV4's and 1 is an MXV4 Energy Plus (Different tread pattern). I'm going to try and get the dealer to spring for matching tires (at least 2). Which brands should I go for? My 740 has the MXV4 Energy Plus tires and I've been happy with those.

Interior - it's black leather. How hot does it get? The exterior is white for what it's worth.

Tinting - I'd like to get the rear windows tinted. Anybody done this and how has it turned out? Any good shops in Northern NJ?

Thanks,

Peeter
