I WOULD NOT replace perfectly good original parts with rebuilt junk. Maintenance stuff sure do it, but replacing radiators, starters and alternators especially with aftermarket/rebuilt is likely to put you in worse shape than you are now.
As for the entitled old man. People want what they want and the visibility issue may be real. You may be able to put a leather or softex kit in something to meet that requirement.

+2, Are you just pulling our leg? You are kidding, right? If you are serious, I feel kinda sad for your In-laws. My only slight modification would be to fix the car with only Toyota parts. There is no way I could go from a Toyota to a Hyundai. I guess I'm too prideful but I'm in my 60's and I would have a hard time doing that. We tend to get set in our ways after a while....
