lights (I like the Planet Bike Superflash quite a bit)
good lock(s)
fenders
Pretty much in that order.
I bring the usual tools and mini pump plus lunch and a thermos of coffee. Learning to dress for the weather is the trickiest part. I like a windbreaker and a few layers under. I commute in "normal" clothes but a cap and arm warmers are nice to have in your bag just in case the temperature drops.
Check the commuting forum for more tips too. Lots of experienced folks over there.
