    lol... you think the Altima has a better interior? I thought you were gonna say Infiniti or Lexus haha.


    Hmm.. you want it to*look* good? Here are a few suggestions I guess


    - some have added wood trim. I've seen some pics and when combined with the darker dashboard (and usually grey interior) makes it look very business-like

    - I don't know if you have a leather interior or not. If not, you can get a nice two-tone. If that's not your taste, then a monotone would work. Make sure it's of good quality

    - Another option to leather is Alcantara. It's suede-like in look, it's resistant like leather (or even better depending on quality) and it's warm like cloth.

    - Add some LED ambient lighting. Footwell lighting works. You can add little LEDs to illuminate the interior door handles

    - Add some sound insulation (like dynamat) to quiet the interior further


    That should give you a good headstart.

    Where do you get these LED lights you speak of? I need more light as I am getting old and can't see so well.

    Is the dynamat expensive and difficult to install?

    Remember than any modification you do to the Prius will lower its resale value.
