I have a 04 TL with the option to buy 05 TL to fix all things wrong on my 04 my question is are the parts interchangeable since they are both 3rd generations or will it be a mistake to go that route? TIA

 

It depends on the specific part but for the most part, it should be interchangeable. to confirm, you can go to www.oemacuraparts.com and look up the specific part you're looking to move over on both the 2004 and the 2005 TL to confirm the part numbers are the same. This will confirm 100% compatibility.

 

small wiring differences for the seats and airbag system but otherwise pretty much the same car. The radio was updated in 2005 and so were seats and center console upper pocket.
