How do i replace the l.e.d bulbs in the spoiler. i have about 10 of them out or so. where can i get these? my friend noticed these while he was driving behind me. thanks for all the help

Im not sure if you can replace the individual LEDs.. you might have to order a new strip from the dealer.

"Michael, I require a new strip of L.E.Ds"

what does that suppose to mean? lol
i guess i need a new strip of led's. where can i get it from besides the acura stealership. mabye ebay?

i think he might be refering to micheal knight (Knight Rider)... if so good joke, if not i dont get it. at my dealership they had the strips in red or white(red l.e.d.s but white casing.) i think it just screw on the underside of the spoiler.

Anyway, did you know that Mr.Feeny on Boy Meets World is the voice of Kitt. mind boggling

I think you would have to replace that whole peice. Actually I think I have a spare at home some where since I had replaced it with a clear one.

their is a screw that i cant get to under the spolier because of the closeness to the deck of the trunk lid. should i take off the spolier to do this?

Just use a stubby screwdriver.

If you get a new LED strip from a dealer you're gonna spend a pretty penny. An option would be to call a couple of junkyards in your area. Also, contact a company like Spoilerdepot, that makes OEM spoiler copies.

When the LED went out on my Integra, I was able to get a replacement from a junkyard for $20.

i went to the dealer today and got a price quote $$$$225 CRAZY
anyway i will try a local junkyard and that website thanks again timmy

thanks man its 45 plus shipping but it better then 225 from dealership.
easy to install? i assume just swap out and swap in. got any pictures on how the clear lens will look?

fsttyms1

very easy just 4 screws. not sure about the wire (i made my spoiler so im not sure if yours has clips to undo or not (i made some for mine) but its easy.
sorry no good pics of the clear one installed yet

Bxscig

Like he said, 4 screws... no biggie NOW the hard part... keeping the slack in the wire and DONT let the wires that you disconnect FALL INSIDE!!! You will have a bitch of a time getting it back out.

You can replace it with a clear spoiler light like I did:

you gotta replace the whole thing

germanshepherd

does the led unit unplug at the unit or do you have to rerun all of the length of the wire?

Bxscig

I think it you splice or it can be unplugged... i changed it out while the spolier was on 5 years ago and don't recall having to rerun the wire.
