That´s a very good list.
I´d recommend to use studded narrow tires, 185/65 much better snow handling than 195´s and the best ones are 175/75 but they do look a bit funny.Block heater is also really good to have, and additional interior heater is really nice too.
Good rubber mats on the floor, no holes on them.
Jump start cables in the trunk.
I use Mobil 0W40 during winter times.
Silicone grease on the door seals and good lube for all the locks.
-20C washer fluid, it´ll allow you to wash windows on a slushy
weather. Even better, get OEM washer fluid heater kit.
Well, all these are not necessaary, but they´ll definitely make
your life easier in a cold winter weather.
And don´t use large rear spoilers (like whaletail) they´ll suck all the snow on the trunk & rear lights ;o)

..less than 300km from the arctic circle
and more than 5 months of winter driving per year :o)
