Use the "Search" function. Personally, I've tried none of the things you mentioned. But, there are members here who have posted about most, if not all, those things. There's a ton of user experience here.

The only ones I can help with:

5) The GPS dock can be had at enissanparts.com. I believe any 700 series Garmin works. We bought a 760 off of Amazon. The way it flips out of sight is really handy when you park downtown.

6) I switched to Mobil 1 on the first oil change. I use a factory filter. My test vehicle for this is my VQ30 Maxima with now has 154k, doesn't use a drop and runs like new.

Something not on your list are the factory skidplates. They are so cheap and easy to install, they are really worth it.
