footwell lights
just wondering whether it is possible to make the footwell lights in the 09/10 tsx brighter by changing the bulb? the footwell light is so dim that it seems like there isnt even a light there!

2. The light dims as your gauges, if you turn the brightness up on the gauges, the footwell light also gets brighter.

1. I believe the footwell light is LED, so there is really no point. However, I'm sure you can buy 2 strips of LED lights and soldering the wires so it turns on either when you want it to or when the oem footwell lights are on.

Contact Marcus at HeelToe and see if he can order the blue or red ambient light kit from Europe or Japan for you. (It's a single LED light in the each side of centre map console and 3 LED lights mounted on the back of the armrest for the rear). My kids loves the blue lights.
Here's a pic from the Honda brochure.

but you cant turn off the footwell light if you turn your head light on right? So is it ok to drive @ night with a bright led on all the time? :S
In our Accord Euro, the footwell light come as factory standard (really dark blue, hard to notice) that will be on when you turn on the headlight. Then you can buy an accessories with a switch to turn on/off...

The LED strip I have on my car are not too bright or too dim. The kit I have also comes with an on/off switch. But to me it is not necessary to add a switch since its is not too bright to cause any obstruction.

There is an easy way to make them brighter. If you notice, the plastic holders that the LEDs sit in purposefully obstruct the light to make it dimmer. All I did was remove the LED bulbs from the plastic holders, drill a hole directly in the center of each holder, re-insert LEDs. The LED is now unobstructed and light much brighter but still not too bright.
