Well.. unless you want a specific color, most of that is lame overpriced stuff. The rear cargo cover is kinda nice, but In my case it was already on the car. If you want homelink is nice, kinda pricey though. Trailer hitch - rip. Parking sensors.. If you have reverse camera already kinda redundant/. From that list I would probably get the cargo cover. A lot of that other stuff you can get cheaper non oem (especially door sills).

I would go with a cargo cover and the cargo mat. The mat covers the floor plus the back of the seats

Rear camera makes parking sensor redundant as stated before.
No one is going to steal narrow 17" touring wheels. Skip the wheel locks as well.

Rubber/plastic all weather mats are definitely a necessity. You're better off with WeatherTech over pricey OEM (which isn't all that good anyways).

The rest are ultimately your preference.

Yup, they are. They sell on eBay also. I ordered a set of all weather floor mats for my girlfriend's brand new Civic, even accidentally ordered the 2-door set. From the moment I ordered, it was corrected and arrived at my door in about 2 days.
