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

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.)

 

Congrats on your purchase. you could change out the lights itself with blue led's but you are still gonna have red everywhere in the dash etc...

personaly i love the red...

 

Welcome to the forums

 

Welcome! As a new member myself let me be the first to warn you about these clowns. You will be throwing money at mods on your car in no time hanging around here!

Welcome

 

he is correct. my bad, i missed that you have the Tl-S. I personally went with the Blue LED's to compliment the lighting already in the car. Since you have the Red lighting, I personally would go with RED LED's, BUT, this doesn't change HOW to do it.

 

In that case, you should be warned about the meets that occur as well: AcuraZine Clubs & Meets

Welcome aboard. Let the modding begin!

 

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

 

Haha, I'm used to it with all the vette guys. I'm reluctant to make any mods, since I think the car is pretty complete already, but I'm sure you guys will sway me...



Awesome, great info! Thanks!


I do love it! My roommates think something is wrong with me. Sometimes I just go sit inside my car and play with some of the cool features. They're like, what are you doing out there? I love it...

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
