I've been poking around the forums for a bit but haven't posted yet.

I'm not exactly new to the CL world, I've had a black on black '99 L4/5MT for the last 2 and a half years as my daily driver/winter vehicle. As of yesterday I upgraded to an '03 CL-S 6MT (silver with black interior and navi).

It's got a lot of miles (192k) but has been taken care of as far as I can tell (just a little rust on the right rear corner), and its all stock. There are some rattles from the dash that I want to take care of and I will probably be replacing suspension wear items at some point this summer, currently leaning towards OEM replacement.

Not that my first gen CL was bad, but the second gen is a much nicer car... +110hp, +1 gear, +2 heated seats, +2 cylinders....

now to sell the old CL...

 

does anybody know where the ballast/igniter is located in a CL 2003 I need to replace it and I can't find it. Thanks

 

Welcome! I'm new as well, but am planning a lot of work on my CL in the upcoming year. I guess I'll be on here a lot!

 

welcome guys!

 

Welcome welcome!

Now if yous guys do end up doing any upgrades think about posting some diy threads or something to bring value to the community. I think everyone should do that from time to time as it helps others that might face the same circumstances as you did.
