interior upgrades for 96 Laramie extended cab?

Did some searching but can't seem to find anything.
I've had my 96 parked for a bit but looking to get her back to new (or at least close) Anyway what kind of upgrades from newer models can I put on this truck?
Mirrors, seats, Dash(mine is cracked right down the middle) Suspension?

Hmm maybe I should have titled it (What late model parts can I use to upgrade my 96?)

I wanted some more modern mirrors for my 96, so I ordered some reproduction flip-up tow mirrors from Rockauto like the newer Dodges have. They have a listing for these for a 96 truck, but they are manual. I ordered some to fit a 98 truck in order to get power mirrors, and just had to splice on my old connectors. Have only had them a few months, but am very happy with them.

Next on the list will be Sport quad headlamps from a 99-02 Sport truck.

Thanks for the link. The tow mirrors on that site are the same idea as what I ended up with. Looks like lots of stuff on that site, I'll have to look through it some more when I have some time. I'm also interested in upgrading my ratty-looking bumpers eventually, I might be able to get some ideas there.

Your welcome.
What I'm really looking for is parts from newer model trucks that will work on the 96. It seems someone listed tow mirrors from a later model, front end suspension swap, seats, etc....
At one time i thought there was a thread for that but I've yet to find it.
