Default OMG WINTER IS COMING!!

Okay few questions for winter storage...

For winterizing car for covering, higher coolant vs. water ratio, change oil, what else is good for winterizing?

Will be driving it prolly once a week for 20-30 min untill hott...

Anyone know of any good car covers, i would like a locking one that would be sweet... something with a soft interior, and a few hard outter layers, and water/snow proof is a must as it will be outside...

Also Im going to be needing new breaks for the spring when I uncover it they're almost metal on metal now, Anyone know off any good slotted front and rear rotor sets, and good pads.. Think big breaks are worth it??(I dont have 1200 bucks to spend on a full set, would liek to stick with the stock calipers)...

Need to fix the play in steering over the winter too, it has about 1.5cm of play any ideas on how to identify whats wrong with it?

Thanks guys know this is vague but need help...

I highly recommend the 10th anniversary Cobra brake set.
I bought the kit for the front and rear and these are awesome feeling brakes.
Maybe it was Blueovalindustries online for like $850 or something like that.
I like them better than the Brembos on my STi.
