2005 PICS of wheel controls at night

Hey Guys, I know we have a pic section but this section gets more traffic and I know people wanted to see a pic of the steering wheel controls lit, I'll take a better shoot of it later but it's real cold outside right now. The darker one is the original, the 2nd one is brightened a little.

We get the picture. Thanks. I guess it's a perk, but nothing to be really salty of, if you memorize your controls. Now how about them window heaters?

That's too many colors if you ask me. They should have stuck w/ white or blue.
I too memorize the controls, for the stereo anyways. I never use my cruise unless I am on a long road trip, which rarely happens.

Either way, thanks for the pic so we could see.

i'll take those tomorrow, car cover is on right now, and though it's a nice custom fit, kinda a pain to put on and take off because it is such a tight fit. Oh this isn't gloating, hope people don't take it the wrong way, i just know a lot of people were asking to see what it looked like, to be honest I don't really look at the steering wheel when I'm driving.

Actually, you will get a clearer pic if you put your camera in manual mode. Right now i am going to assume that you are using a "point and click" camera right? If it's got a manual mode, first put it into "program mode" then point the camera to the darkest spot where you want to take the picture. The camera will give you settings for "aperture" and "shutter speed". Memorize these #'s and them switch to manual mode. Use those #'s to take the shot in manual mode. You will get a perfect night shot. Also, be sure to use a stand or a tripod. It's important when taking pics at night. It's almost impossible to hold your hand perfectly steady for about half a second.

thanks for the pics. Interior looks good.

thanks

With digital camera - No flash at night = blurry. Flash = washed out.

Choose Danielson...

You just need a tripod, just as you would with a regular camera, to get longer exposures. The picture will still come in clearly without the washed out colors, but instead of a tiny fraction of a second shutter open time, you need closer to a full second.

If he doesn't use flash. He'll just need a much longer exposure time.
So... either way. He'll need a tripod.

I think Acura meant to have that lighted buttons to match the earlier 2004 TSX with the green key ring. We just happen to have the newer design buttons without the lights. Green color looks so... outdated.

God I hate you people The instrument cluster of the TSX is beautiful! I had a chance to buy a TSX the day it came out, but went with the CL Type-S....that VTEC powerplant sold me.

But damned if I dont see a TSX interior and wish I just would have bought that car-especially considering the battering the CL is taking in value. But the TSX 5AT was so slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow. And I wouldn't buy a 6spd- all of my other cars are manual!

Props!
