I would like to see (and I apologize for not going through so many of these other responses, so these may be double-taps... but then you'll know at least 2 or more of us really want these pieces of #InCockpitMechWarriorFlair!!!

- family photos (we can upload ourselves!!!)

- old unit patches (torn from old uniforms and clipped to the sides of the cockpit)

- a "grisly war-trophy" thrown in the corner on the floor - bloody banner from a #HatedFoeLanceLeader or "cracked-off-cockpit-hatch-nametag" from a #HatedFoe

- a PDA that follows a friends "accomplishments" near-real-time!

Longest Troll Post Evar! Gratz OP!

I want a 43 page long WALL of text between the hud and the cockpit glass scrolling in a loop and containing every unimplemented request contained in this thread. It should be a feature...in just Paul's mech. Oh yeah, it needs to be pink text and brightly pulsing fast enough to cause a seizure.

The rest is just lag inducing fluff. Fluff belongs outside the cockpit and should be destructible. If you are going to pack this stuff into a cockpit, I am hoping it is optional.

Loose panels with sparking wiring hanging out.
A label gun. More specifically, you buy one in game and can put labels all over your cockpit. "NEVER Press This Button." "DON'T Put Tongue Here." That kind of thing.
Wallet sized photos of loved ones or pinups you found online tucked into gauges and window sills. Buy the slot in the cockpit and select location to upload from.
Hula Girl.
Hula Urbanmech.
Bobble Head Mechwarrior in Neuro Helmet.
Fuzzy Dice.
Air Fresheners.
Tiny Useless Fire Extinguisher. Deluxe version is in a glass case with a mini crowbar. Alternative version is just the broken glass case with the crowbar hanging free.
Handcuffs.
A keyboard and Mouse.
Model of the joystick you're using.
The Club.
MP3 Player.
"For a good time call..." that some mechanic scrawled into your cockpit as a joke one day.

Hope the devs are actually reading this... ;)

EDIT: My wires got ninja'd but I'd already repeated a lot of other's idears.
Also, good call on the pants! ALL mechwarriors pilot pantsless. I prefer coolant-shorts that plug into the cockpit from a fluff standpoint.

43 pages...I doubt I can think of anything that hasn't already been said...But I might as well +1 the hula girls, radio, perhaps a little intercom/TV/transmission terminal to show pilot faces or for comstar/mission updates to be showing up in, artwork, tongue-in-cheek "cupholder" (as if, haha), thermometer (would look cool with heat buildup)...

I'm thinking also change the colors/covers on our seats/cockpit chairs, so when we look down might have a texture, or in the launch screen you can see the chair (command couch) your pilot is getting into...HOT ROD RED LEATHER, haha...

Seat pillows?

http://www.retroplanet.com/PROD/22441

We all know this is the most important, but perhaps perfume bottles or...Dancing flowers (you know, kinda like bobble heads, push down on them and they bounce for a long time, no friction, etc.) Stickers ?

I would like to see:

Hula Girl
Battlemaster Bobblehead
Atlas Bobblehead

I would also like to see the pilot interacting with them if you sit idle too long in your mech and they stop moving.
