Hey guys, I just wanted to introduce myself, I purchased an 03 manual acura CL last april, and am just getting around to driving it (was deployed). Anywho my heated seats werent working, but I searched and found the forum, it looks great! Quick question, is Ron Jon like a sponsor of the website or the owner? I was looking at his page, and his wheels and kits are sick!

Welcome to the forum.

Browse around the FAQ and look up all the information you can on your car. It'll help you out in the long run.

I know!! I've been printing out some of this plethora of information. I only have 33k on my car and I have a few small issues, one of my headlights is flickering from time to time and my heated seats dont work. The do it yourself section is phenomenal!

Welcome Yo.

Man...you've been deployed and your only age 8.

Just kidding...not sure about your issues you posted but good luck finding your answers.

They are very knowledgeable car folks here and unfortunately I am not one of them.

^ What's funny is I don't know what happened to me.

I got out of the import car scene after high school and just returned last year.

Lost all my "game"

All my skills gone....amazing what alcohol & drugs will do to one man. LOL.

Your headlight needs a new ballst, I just replaced mine yesterday.Ron Jon is a sponser on the forum, not the owner. And as far as your heated seat check the 2nd gen TL forum. They have a thread on how to fix them. And most importantly, WELCOME!

My headlight was flickering the other day too, now it seems to be fine.
I am wondering how much you paid for a ballast, and does a 99 TL have the same ballast as a 2001 cl-scuz i work at a dlr and we have a 99 TL sitting around waiting to get raped for parts!

Ballast is the same. I got one wholesale for $320 + $100 for new bulbs + $118 for labor.

Sweet. Welcome to Acurazine dude. Nice to know kids are being licensed these days at the tender age of 8 years old. Let us know if you ever need a boost to get under your hood so you can check your oil. =D LOL

Hook a brotha up I got $45 for a new ballast.

I hate these people that say "you got ripped off" but then when i want a ballast for the same great price they paid they cant do it!
Uneless you can get all of us ballast's for $45 then dont brag how cheap you got yours!
