Does anyone know of a place in CA (hopefully in the LA/San Diego region... Southern California) where they will do a GOOD job in clearing out headlights for the 2000 Acura TL?

I want to get them cleared, but don't feel like taking them out and shipping them out to New Jersey. It'll leave me without a car for a week (i really depend on my car).

Please let me know. Thanks a lot!

I know this has been answered before, but if I do the same, will I fail inspection?

Why in SoCal when you are from Cupertino?? Did yo move?? down there?

If you are still from BayArea, click on the June meet link in my sig..



I think you can still pass inspection. Just your warranty will be voided on them.

Just follow the instruction and do it for yourself.... http://www.acura-tl.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/007623.html

Yeah, if someone knows of a shop that can do it professionally. Please speak up. I'm interested in getting them cleared but I don't have the skills to do them. (I just don't want to mess them up especially when the headlights are backordered.) Thanks in advance.

so does anyone know of a shop in CA that can do a good job in clearing headlights for the 2000 TL?

I don't know about the other shops that E-Dub mentioned in his other post but I know SpeedImage by the airport doesn't clear headlights. I asked them when I was down there once.

Dood, Spped Image is up in Santa Clara... too far away from LA anyways.

I'm thinking Robocar in West Covina might do it. I think they custom make headlights. I'll try giving them a call later.

I've been to that shop before.. the one off of Nogales and Valley right?? What part of LA are you in?

You guys do realize how much effort and time it takes to do this job right!
Basically, taking almost all day to do one set!
If you take it to some shop to do it, how much $$$ are you willing to spend?
Are you willing to take out the housings yourself?
Just curious, I'm planning to do my S2000 headlights soon!

robocar sucks crap. dont go there. they overcharge you like CRAZY for everything. i've been there once and never gone back again.

SLVR TL

Yup, that's the one.
I live in South Bay.

SLVR TL

That's true... maybe I should just do it myself. I sort of chickened out when I heard the headlights are back ordered.

SLVR TL

I used to take my Prelude there to get modded.
Well, they didn't overcharge me too much but I couldn't say their workmanship was the greatest either. But they are the only place that might do custom headlights. That's why I brought it up.
