help with finding parts.

hey guys,
my cayenne is now going to be on the road at lot more, so i want to make some changes to the cayenne.

i was wondering if u can help me find some parts that i'm looking for.

2. running boards, and roof rack
3. some nice 20" wheels???

4. this is something i really want to do but dont know if its possible. I dont have auto head lights in my cayenne. so at night time they dont turn on by them self. is there any way to put that feature in now????

According to the3 or 4 dealers/service managers I spoke with, you cannot do an install of the anti-dimming mirror after the fact because it has to be wired for one from the factory- and they don't come pre-wired. I was bummed too.

i thought i read on this form some time ago, that there is a way to do this. i even saw the part on an website. but cant seem to find that site again. ?

just wondering i have the full porsche nav unit in my car, and have a place to put in the SIM card from the phone, but after i put the sim card in nothing happens, does this system need to be activated? or do i need to get more stuff installed to make the phone system work?

with the auto headlights i believe it is a software thing so if you take it into your porsche dealer they should be able to do it unless it didnt come with them or something im not to sure , i had to do it to my 997 since its the law in canada.

my car is in canada too, u need daytime running lights in canada. but not auto lights.. there is a home position on the light switch for the auto head lights.. i dont have that switch, my dealer never told me that was an option that i can get.. so i dont have that. and i would love to add that feature. but not sure if can. or how much it would cost.
