I also agree mortified penguin's rear view camera. Anything that allows you to see behind you would be amazing. Maybe it could be an alternate screen to the minimap/radar screen, or mounted at the top of the cockpit.

Since we may not get customisable mech paint jobs (Cause some one will make one of their junk, and some mom will be upset when her 10 year old sees it)
Why not have the ability to have user customisable cockpit bits and bobs. Like the steam work shop, have the interior, where its just you seeing it, be much more customisable with user made content. The comunity seems to be very creative. Show your love by letting them show theirs
We are "treading into battle" and "Risking our lives" so why not "relax the regs alittle" where its just us seeing it.

Letter from home/post cards
Ticket stubs tucked under the edge of a view screen for some event
Cooler full of Beer/Soda even if just a little tiny one on a lower area that holds a 4 pack
Music Player of some sort...we've all seen Iron Eagle! *rocks out to 80's music*
Mini Holo picture thing with a beach or someplace relaxing that would be good for 'I want to go here when this hell is over'.

What about a big red button under glass with a sign " Dont push Except in case of Emergency " .
Also what looks to be a Mech tech book titled " Mech piloting for Dummies " .

1. fuzzy trim around the canopy (sorry I couldn't find any pics for what I mean)
2. junk - old cups and crumbled paper
3. opened access panels with exposed circuit boards
4. Copy of "The Annotated works of Jerome Blake", along with a ComStar necklace
5. "Hang in There" kitten poster for maximum lulz
6. Crown-shaped air-freshener (google it if you don't know what I mean)
Faction specific:
5. Kurita: Katana and NoDachi (sp.?)
6. Liao: Copy of "Art of War"
7. Steiner: assorted pelts, a stylized valkyrie poster (not the 'mech), picture of Katherine's coronation (Victor noticeably absent)
8. Davion: Irwin Rommel poster and photograph of New Avalon Institute
9. FRR: Empty beer steins, maybe a viking helmet somewhere
10: Marik: I couldn't really think of anything, so I'll go with Solaris VII gambling stubs (seems like Marik should have a fair number of gamblers given their relative size and staying power)
11. Mercenary: Promotional poster from a DropShip Company
12. Lone Wolf: Tool Calendar with pinup model
NOTE: I did not fact-check everything here for authenticity, so there may be things that do not fit the house/faction. I was just spit-balling some ideas.

Fuzzy Dice (Could also do Plush Mech's, etc.)
Disco Ball (Disco Dropships?)
Client Side pictures taped up
Duct Tape (somewhere, at least a role just in case)
Options for tally count (board, scratches, etc)
PLASTIC DINOS!!!
Little Mech Action Figures and/or bobble heads??
Any sort of Music System, preferably integrated.
Slots for these kinds of things should be limited depending on how much they clutter the cockpit. Maybe certain options that take up less space can fit more easily, like kill tally scratched onto the existing hull, can tally behind other things a little. Maybe use a Critical Mass/Space limitation system, or limited slots for specific things, etc. Then again maybe some pilots want to dump a truck load of tiny action figures in their rig and squint between the cracks to see what they're doing, who knows. Could be interesting and I wont turn down an easy kill.

What about, before all systems are nominal you get a big "PENDING" sign and when your systems become fully operational you get a big "

How about a kill sheet. Showing number of each mech class killed with a line scratched beneath it?
