Some observations & questions from a new G owner

I've only had the car for 2 days but I've made some observations:
1) The Bose system absolutely SUCKS. It actually hurts my ears. I turned the treble to -2 and the bass to -1, but it still sounds hollow and tinny. Plus, the left door tweeter is not angled at the driver so I can't hear it and it sounds like my left ear is deaf.
2) The seatbelt latch sticks up very high and sort of gets in the way when turning. The shoulder strap is very close to my neck too, I hope it doesn't slice me up in an accident.
3) This baby has grip! I took a freeway cloverleaf onramp pretty fast and it stayed flat and solid.
4) Tons of low-end torque, even at 1000 rpm!


Some questions:
1) Anyone know of a good brand for wheel locks and windshield reflector screen (that you use when parked to keep the sun out)? My current one doesn't fit.
2) When I am starting from a stop, the engine kind of makes a slow whirling or ticking sound (sorry, it's hard to explain). Is that normal???
3) Any suggestions on your favorite mods (both performance and (minor) cosmetic?
