Please, write in complete sentences.

check out ebay for the nav disk. or you can buy it directly from the dealer.

you will also have to get a custom double din bracket made.

lol okay ill try my best, did you guys see the pic of my car. How do think it looks, and are the rims decent. In your honest opinion, how can i make the car look better. I know i need aspec body kit, but do they make it for a 07/08 base tl, and where can i find them. I want to tint my headlights, but dont know where to do it, any advice would be grateful, and how can i post pics on the thread, its not letting me, heres the link though

Rims are a little ghetto.

Car is 08 but has wrong mirrors. Has the old style non turn signal mirrors. 07-08 cars have the turn signal mirrors. And get new rims ASAP.

Thanks guys for your advice i would definitely sell my rims and try to get black rims, they look good on a WDP. The mirrors are from a 06 tl thats what the previous owner told me they forgot the car had signals on the 07/08 tl, when they were fixing it, but oh well its not a big i can always change it back, but the is a 08 not 06

check the items for sale on here, some ppl are gutting out the Tls and other that might have the same parts you're looking for.

Might be able to get them at the junkyard as well, nav unit might be harder but the camera and dvd reader should be an easy find.
