did anyone have trouble installing the trunk light for the exLED ? the plug for the trunk exLED light doesnt seem to fit through into place without me forcing it or breaking it. any thoughts?

 

you have to break those gold clips of than plug the led in. right guys?

 

i had the same issue. i think you can shave off part of the plastic edge on the light to get it in but i just found a way to wedge it in with the contact points still touching and it's been fine.

 

I bent the metal clip. Boom. Problem solved.

 

Lol wow okay thanks for the help guys. Also - I blew the fuse at the courtesy lights by the rear passenger door. Do you guys know if this repair is covered by warranty?

 

ummm, why not just replace the fuse?

pic of driver's side fuses are listed here.... https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...83&postcount=6

 

I just slid it in there after realizing the proper angle it took.

 

no problem wit dat one...a shit load of problems wit the license plate ones lol...

 

 

^^ lmao

 

all my exleds went in smoothly.........


in my wagon LOLZ

 

Why should that be covered by warranty? You blew it (the fuse) when you modded the lights. You pay to play.

If you don't want to change the fuse yourself then you'll have to pay the dealer to do it.

 

Changing a fuse is extremely basic. If you need the warranty to fix that then you might want to reconsider modding your tsx.

 

I had no trouble with mine.

 

just went to the dealer.. it IS covered by warranty i changed the lights back to the stock ones and brought it in

 

first time modding, chillax bro

 

now disconnect the negative terminal next time BEFORE you touch anything electrical. i would suspect 3 or 4 visits for fuse replacements and they MAY start to ask questions.

 

yeah i was little impatient. i actually blew it because the socket actually fell into the door hole. i used a small screw driver to get it back up

 

For the future, fuses are pretty much free:

Save time and gas and diy. There is a fuse remover tool (and a few extra fuses) in the fuse box under the hood. Looks similar to this:

 

No it isn't. You hid the fact that you modded the car - thereby causing the fault - and technically you committed warranty fraud. No "ifs" "ands" or "buts" about it.

While this was probably just a minor repair that took almost no time, the concept that it is OK to hide your role in causing the damage is not minor. It is that mindset that causes dealers to clamp down on warranty repairs and deny legitimate claims if they look the least bit iffy.

If I were you I wouldn't go bragging about it.

Warranty repairs are to correct that the manufacturer is responsible for. In this case you broke it and you should pay for it.

 

in my 12 THOSE ^^^^^^^ are not the correct fuses.

i have LO PROFILE MINI FUSES......just saying/

But isn't it much more fun to commit warranty fraud?

 

give me a break. get off your high horse.

 

ceb:

 

I just lol'ed myself. The worst part is, he's right.

 

ceb sounds to me he works for a dealership, most guys who do are always trying to enforce the rules hardcore.

 

LOL!! ask him about installing an HID kit into reflector housings
