Question Couple things idk how to do.....

I have a 05 TL:

1) I dont know how to switch on the fog lights ONLY!!! i see a couple of pics from members and idk how they do it.....I play wit the switch and all but it only comes on when i have the headlights on with it. and is there a way to have the parking lights on wit the fogs without the headlight(middle section)?

2) i saw this in Carrielynn's gauge........... how do i display the MPG for my car?? I go through all the pages and i cant find it

1. Most members routed the foglights to a separate switch. That's how they get them to turn on independently. From the factory, it can't be done. The canadian TLs have daytime lights instead of fogs, so they willl be on with the engine running.

2.
a)If you mean displaying the mpg on the nav screen, it's a mod some members use. It's a copy of the trip computer from the 1st gen TSX, which is a little more advance than the TL version.

b)If you mean the small display in the guage cluster, scroll through until you reach the trip computer. Then hit the right key to show remaining distance based on the fuel in the tank and driving habits.

Hope this helps

If you want the fogs to come on independently then you need a DRL module from autobarn.com. It turns your fogs into daytime running lights like on the 07+ models.
