So what are the odds of getting the Type-S headlights cleared out ?
Can the base internals swap with my gloss black parts ?

Blacked out v2, ZKW Lense Swap, 85122+, Switchbacks
For a 2005 Acura Tl Base Model how much would they cost just to buy flat out.

reason i ask is bc i think the previous owner of my car did something to the passenger side n it looks like clear coat was sprayed over it.

Yes the internals are interchangeable between the base and type S.

You can email me to discuss which route you want to go with, trade in or if you could send your headlights in for the work.

You need 4 of the quick splice connectors, shown below, pair of pliers and some electrical tape.

lacrossekid1010's headlights

04-05 TL headlights
Blacked out V2
Painted fog light bulb cover

Install the LED strips on lacrossekids request, I still dont recommend them as they are not reliable at all.

QUESTION FOR THOSE WITH CCFL

Did you hook it up to a relay or directly to your lights? Any regrets and wish you did it the other way? I'm still trying to decide so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Oh, so I see.
From what it seems, it looks very bright.
How do you think it will look if you cover every other led?

So I did this mod myself over the weekend. Wasn't hard, but def worth the $150 to send to JNC (trust me).

What I am posting about however is when I had it apart, and was about ready to put back together I had gotten some finger prints on the chrome under reflector things. So I took a microfiber to it. And what do you freaking know, the chrome started rubbing right off. So I had to take it almost completely apart and repaint it. Added probably 4 hours to my work load.

At any rate, great mod, would recommend to all.

Did you rub too hard? Cold weather flaking? Was the headlight fogged up before (moisture getting in) and making the chrome weak?

I'm having JnC do my headlights. His pics tell the whole story in every job he does.

No moisture, and I rubbed hard enough for a microfiber to get the finger prints off... This happened on the amber pieces inside reflectors and the silver strip as well.

Just have JNC do it, lol.

Yes they are indeed very bright, here are some low exposure pictures as normal pictures show just a blob of light rather than showing the definition.

Yes, that chrome is very sensitive and the level of sensitivity varies from headlight to headlight as I have had some that are fine with some minor rubbing and some get messed with the slightest of touch.

I did get your PM as well and at the moment the only spare I might have is a pair of blacked out strips.
