Got my '05 today

Picked up my 05 TL today it's the 6 speed with navi boy am I glad I decided to go with the 6 speed one there's no comparison pick up wise between the auto/6 speed and just the fun of having the 6 speed to me makes the car that much fun to drive..Now tinted windows,a spec kit,18's,fog light mod and some blue led's and i'm good to go..oh yeah and would like to do the navi hack but don't know if i'm good enough computer wise to do it

I love the look of the car as you would say unmolested also,but it needs tint and lower fog lights...I hate how the fogs on it now are the halogen yellowish color while the other lights are the hids..Why would they have just put lower fogs on it from the factory???

Oh yeah the only problem with the car is the shift knob is starting to show some signs of wear definitely minor seeing the car is basically spotless but it still bugs me a bit...Where can I order the shift knob for it???

Just put Ion yellow bulbs in fogs. I makes them more effective for fog anyway. Nokya 2500 halogen bulbs $9.99 on ebay.
