on the tsx part of the acura canada site, i see that there are:
Remote fuel-filler-door and trunk release
Lockable glove compartment with light

Is it just me or is there really a remote fuel-filler-door release and a glove compartment light?
Weird

zaskar

The light in the glove compartment this is true.

And the remote trunk release and fuel filler release is probably the little handle on the driver side push for fuel and pull for trunk...

Wich I think every TSX has...

Out of curiosity, how have you been filling your gas tank?

TSXforme

ianz

i just thought remote would mean something like on the key fob.

and does the glove compartment have a light?

pandimus

Yeah, there is a little button on the side of the fob, when pushed a guy named bob pops outta the lighted glove box and take your car to get filled up. (ON his benjamin)

ianz

what's with the sarcasm people. just give me a goddamn answer.

pandimus

thats definitly going to get one.

Viking

Peeps may think you already own a TSX, you should probably state that you don't own one yet.

Yes, there is a light.

ric

the light is in the glove box and the gas tank lever is next to the driver's seat. There is no remote transponder for opening the gas tank lid. I would assume that "remote gas tank opening device" would refer, not to a transponder remote, but would refer to a way to open the tank NOT at the tank lid (the old spring-mounted lever door opened by a thumbcatch and with or without a locked gas cap).

ianz

oh......thanks ric for clarification

i do have a PWP tsx in my garage but there is no glove compartment light. i better get that checked.

Big Pimpin

got one last week same colour and i do not remember a light in the glove compartment box either

slo007

You ain't pimpin right then...

ianz

hm.......maybe it's a canadian thing??
weird.....i was a little surprised when i opened it and there was no light.
did you get it at burrard acura?

Big Pimpin

nope not with out the light i'm not

rivvin

I thought there was no light in my TSX too. But if the headlight's on, the glove compartment will light up. At least that's how I discovered it. And, it would be weird if it didn't come with one. Every Honda I've driven had it.

Big Pimpin

richmond acura i think it is a canadian thing but to me its not really a big deal you can turn on the light used for reading and i dont really use the box i only have insurrance papers in there and my sunglasses so i dont really need a light i just feel for it. And i dont think i need sunglasses at night lol

ianz

oh i see.
then i guess turning on the parking lights will result in the glove light working too.
kind of weird that it's not like a door light though.

irq

Why not keep your sunglasses in the sunglasses compartment near the homelink buttons?

Big Pimpin

yeah i noticed that compartment but they are versace and i dont want to scratch the lenses they are the perfect gradient.

irq

The compartment has a very soft lining...

On a side note, I went to Acura.ca's model line up and they still have the 2003 CLs, its interesting they still have the CL on there when the car was discontinued a while ago.
