i am a new member and i was wondering if i could put type s taillights on my car, i was at an auto body shop today and they said they might not fit because the connectors and things inside may not align up correctly, if you could tell me whether they do fit and where and how to get the type s lights that'd be great.

Hey I was looking for some new bulbs for my base 08 TL fog lights. I'd like them to be white, maybe a hint of blue. Or does blue not look good on fogs?
THANKS!

no. there are no stand-alone ecu's for the 3gen tl. some very lucky members got their ecu's flashed by hondata, but that never made it to the general public.

^^^ yes they will fit. but the ballasts from the '05 will not. so you either need a set of ballasts, or you need to hack up the ones from the '05.

Let me re-iterate a little. I am referring to the spokes clearance to the caliper (whether they will contact), not the wheel barrel.

Thanks for the info stillhere. How come nobody (that I've seen, anyway) seems to run AR1/AR2 in 19" though, and tire rack doesn't seem to offer them for a 3G TL? Will the average shop know how to install correctly if I give them the correct offset? Sorry, noob to offsets as my previous cars haven't required them for wheel fitment.

that wheel will not fit, it is far to narrow.. 17x7.5 would also be too narrow

Minimum 17x8 +45

I don't see why not... Just make sure you get the correct color.. Don't want gray mirrors on camel interior and vice versa

the wheels fit, but the tires will require you to roll your fenders and dial in a tiny bit of negative camber via a skunk2 front camber kit and an ingals rear camber kit.. both of which you can get from http://excelerateperformance.com
