New TL-S Owner
I just traded in my '00 vette (didn't like being driven every day for 7 years) and purchased an 07 TL-S. I really wanted something with 4-doors with some decent performance and more than 3 inches of ground clearance. And man, I am WOW'd by this car. It's so smooth and responsive, and I was really surprised by how well it corners. Anyways, I just registered for the forums and I've been doing some browsing. I always had corvetteforum as a resource, and now I'm hoping you all will be the same...
So, just saying hi...
Oh, one quick question, I think I prefer the blue interior lighting of the TL to the red in the TL-S, there's no easy way to change bulbs or anything is there? I doubt it, but just wondering if anyone else felt the same way and found a solution. See ya on the road

welcome
The search feature will be your best friend. There are several threads out there regarding the lighting.
I did mine with Blue LED's long before I joined the forum. It is REALLY easy. I simply used a small flat-head screwdriver & then was VERY gentle witha pair of needlenose pliers to remove some of the more stubborn bulbs. (would not reccommend this to all though, as if you are not really careful you could EASILY crush the bulb.)

Welcome and congrats on the new car. I'm sure you'll love it...much more "driver-friendly" than the 'Vette.

And as a daily driver, I'll tell you, the TL is much friendlier. I love my vette, and I hope to get a new one sometime down the road, but the TL has amazed me and I look at Acura in a whole new light now...
Thanks everyone
