Ken1997TL

I saw a '98 TL the other day and it had a dark interior. I've never seen that before in our 1st generations. They've always been a light leather with a tan/brown dash. This one I saw was a light blue exterior with a dark grey dash with dark grey leather. It was cool to see but I still like my lighter interior

Also on that car, the foglight switch was the bottom of the three switches instead of being furthest from the driver. I always thought the seat heater switches were closest to the driver.

Maybe they changed that for '98 or maybe the switches got changed.


Any comments? please add, especially if you've noticed something interesting or different about 1st generation TL's.

Ya I've seen a few TL's with dark leather, it's rare. I've also seen a few that had cloth interior, that was weird.

I have a 1997 3.2 TL, Flamenco Black Pearl with Dark grey interior, on the dash/doors and the seats. Carpet is light grey still though....

I saw one with cloth interior too it was strange, cloth and no wood grain. Ive got a dark interior in my car. Black all over.

Hmm interesting. I have a '97 3.2 TL that is Flamenco Black Pearl. It has a light tan interior.

Do you have a pic of yours by chance?

Here's mine

there were also1st gens without sunroofs

TLBaller

damn ken, looks like you keep your shiet clean! i need to vacuum too

Ken1997TL

Yeah, the exterior needs a good wax, but the interior is CLEAN

Cornflake

Yup. Here you go....(Only one I have of the interior, I'll take some more for ya...) Dash and seats are pretty much same colour as the steering wheel if that helps, looks very light here because of sun shining directly on it, but actually is a bit darker than this.

Ken1997TL

Wow, its the same dark interior as the Legends. Looks classy.

TLBaller

whats the blue wire on the left side of the pic?

Cornflake

Yeah, I like the colour scheme, thanks. Don't ask about the blue wires, they are speaker wires, before I got around to pulling them through the door. Hate the way it looks, just haven't had time to clean it up, been too busy with work and the G/F... Have cleaed it up since the pics tho with black wire loom.

there are 96 tl's with cloth and no sunroofs but they have wood grain, my mom's got one, just like mine but I have leather and sunroof, it's pretty much the same, just the seats and the doors look wierd...I don't like it.

Ken1997TL

Since she has cloth, its a 2.5 non-premium. I learned thats how it works.

2.5 = cloth and no sunroof
2.5 / premium = leather + sunroof
3.2 = leather + sunroof
3.2 / premium = heated leather + traction control

I love my 3.2 Premium....

Ken1997TL

Me too..

Loved my '88 Accord too. RIP. Long live the TL.
