We picked up our '05, ABP, auto, non-navi TSX today!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
My wife drove it home from the dealership, at night, and said the lighted steering wheel controls were very dim. Is that normal?
Other than that, we can't wait for tomorrow to come so we can see the car in sunlight. What a FABULOUS car!!!!

 

is it lighted at all?

 

Hahaha.,........ I know exactly how happy you are. I just picked up mine 2 nights ago.

 

Did she actually turn on the headlights or assume they turn on automatically like new domestic cars? I am not being funny, I drove home from the dealer with my lights off.

 

lol..."Honey, these new Xeons SUCK"

 

My wife was like ,"this car is so dar inside and out"...

 

OH! and look! No dash! awesome. I hate knowing what speed im driving.

 

No, thats the problem. The dash still lights up even when the headlights are off. Dashboard lighed = headlights on, says the brain.

 

Ohhhh, yea thats right. Else you couldnt even see it during the day...durrrrr me.

 

That's what my dealer said too, it was a stupid design. The dash's lights still does on when headlights are not on, it's kind of confusing. But once you get used to it, which took me like....ONCE? it's fine. If you don't turn on the headlights, it's super dark inside.

 

I once got honked at for high beaming a TSX who didn't have his headlights on.

Maybe that was you wsklar,

 

I was honking at you because you are a fellow TSX'er....

 

My steering wheel controls are not "lighted" it looks more like a dim glow.

 

Oh, OK. Ours is the same. I guess that's normal. Thanks.
