LED highmount brake light?

Is one available for the TSX? This is one of those parts that should have been there from the factory...

I think one touch moonroof should have been there from the factory but that didn't happen either.

Yes. If I recall, it is a 7440. There is thread that has all the details here.

You can replace most of the lights with LED's...if you find the thread that moda_way is talking about, they tell you what you need to change each of the taillight bulbs, the interior lights, etc.

As for it to be standard...there's alot of features that we can say should have been included...but things cost money, and higher-end cars cost more due to features. Who knows, maybe the TSX was originally designed with those lights in mind, and then Honda came around and said no...

1-touch moonroof would suck for me...I never open it all the way...I'm used to my accord with moonroof visor...I'd leave it a crack open to vent while in the rain.

I go to a place called www.superbrightleds.com they have 12 volt car replacement bulbs. I have replaced most of the bulbs in my car with them for the decreased current draw on the battery

I like the reverse lights especially. Those are plug and play arent they? (no resistors in other words?

The only ones you'd need resistors for are the turn signals. FYI, you have to keep polarity correct, meaning there is only one way they will work when plugged in. So if it isn't working, flip it around.
