I have compiled all bulb sizes for everything in the 3G Acura TL for everyone's references. Enjoy.

All models (04-08 and Type S):
Rear turn bulb(2ea): 7440
Reverse bulb(2ea): 921
Ceiling(dome)(4ea): 2825
Doors(2ea): 194
Trunk(1ea): 2825
Vanity mirrors(2ea): 2825
License plate(2ea): 168
Glove box(1ea): 74
Center console(1ea): 74
Brake, side markers and high mount stop: all L.E.D.

*The 2825, 168, and 194 are all the same size with different wattage.
5watt, 4watt, and 3watt respectively.


HID main beam - D2S Osram 60404 bulbs for all models (4300K stock)

Front turn signals:
04: 7443
05: 7443
06: 7443
07 base: 7443
07 Type S: 1157
08 base : 7443
08 Type S: 1157

Fogs for 04-06 models use 9006 bulbs.
Fogs for 07-08 and Type S models use H8 (35w stock wattage).

DRLs (07-08;Type S) uses HB3/9005

 

That's exactly what I posted

 

I lazied it up a bit. Get over it,

 

I didn't realize it was so hard to click a link.

 

tyrannosaurus rex , i love you.

 

hey guilty, sup brah?

 

I clicked the link and it took me to that same information that guilty posted...I don't get it.

 

Noobs everywhere these days.

 

 

Allow a "noob" (*looks at my join date*) to apologize for expanding on a link that you posted and pulled the information from that thread into this one. Don't get butt hurt or anything!




Hey, sup man!

 

^I wasn't even talking to you homeslice.

 

Good

 

Just a couple of guys trying to be helpful...no harm in that.
Wow...you're definitely not a noob, brother...just a lurker then!

 

Super lurker

 

 

Actually I'm glad he posted that list. I needed that information.

I wouldn't have clicked on the link. Lol

I think this board is to the point in size and maturity that if you can answer a question, entirely, then you should. It makes searching a lot easier and better. Hopefully that will cut down on repetitive questions.

 

This website (for the most part) deserves all the credit for what I know about our cars. So, to anyone whose contributed informational threads, thank you!
I've spent years perusing these forums, but I try to avoid speaking on topics I'm not comfortable with debating. I'm slowly getting there, the mod bug has gotten me lately.

And I've been following your progress thread too, btw,

 

OP, check out theretrofitsource.com for new bulbs. I think you may be interested in the CBI bulbs for the headlights. Also consider the ZKW-R lenses (although you have to open the headlights to install these) as they make the biggest difference in your light output.

For the foglamps, any 9006 bulb will do, or you could switch it up with a set of Nokya Yellow (or similar). To all, don't bother with the new Silverstar bulbs that are advertised to be "HID-colored"---waste of time and money.

Turn signal LEDs can be found at vleds.com or autolumination.com. You will need resistors (or modify the turn signal relay per Roger555's thread) to kill the hyper-flash.

 

Thanks bud...I got you...was just making an observation. Again, it's great when we all jump in and help each other!

 

I got it...
