Latest Updates, advise needed

Waz up all. Recent member, officially addicted to Acura-cl. It's very difficult to keep the CLS stock with all this talk here of upgrades that can be done. I had to start somewhere so this past friday I got my ride tinted to 15%. Looks better for sure. I also received the Polard m6s but trying to install them was a pain. I need some help here because i don't want to take to a shop to put it on a lift and pay extra. People on here said that you can put your hand thru, reach in and pull out the bulb. Can someone please explain that further. Thanks.

If your talking about the lamps, then the instructions for bulb installs is in your owners manual.
I know it can be done removing only two of the plastic fasteners, some pple. claimed to have done it by removing only one.

WOW, 15% tint in Pennsylvania….I wish you luck.
I would never attempt that dark.

Here is a link to a photo showing how to remove the entire “road Lamp” assembly from the front of the car. CL Road Lamps
That is how I installed my PIAA’s.

It does not look that dark, hopefully you won't jinks me, but I've had 15 on another car and only one situation where a cop gave me a problem. But the tint job was fairly cheap and done well, so if anyone is interested I can give the name of the guy. He charges 175 for Llumar tint.

THe easiest way to replace the bulbs in your lamps is to reach under your car... and feel your way through the cracks and crevices till you find the back of the bulb... turn it a 1/4 turn... pull it out... replace it... and stick it back in...

Shouldnt take more then 30 seconds per bulb.
