Should I keep the tablet ? Its connected to my aux port so I can hear my music and its a great GPS. There's a mount attached to my passenger seat bolt. Keep or to exaggerated?

Both are fine, especially the TL badge.

As you know I added a Type S badge above the sidemarker, not below. But mine is centered above the sidemarker. I would suggest centering the "TL" badge, either above or below.

Yikes, I hope you hide your tablet when you leave your car parked out in public. Not sure where you're located, but here in LA, asshole thieves will bust your window to grab what catches their eye. In fact, I actually witnessed a guy breaking into some poor guy's SUV to grab something at 2 in the morning (I was in my apt and heard glass break). Not sure what was stolen but the owner of the SUV was pretty upset the next day when he was calling insurance.

Thank goodness I have my car parked in the parking garage all the time!

Have you considered doing a navi conversion instead?

Yeah I take the tablet out when leaving the car. And yes I have all the parts for the navi conversion besides the steering wheels button. I'm doing the conversion this summer.

I think it might be a little better moved down so it's not right on the sidemarker. Or above like S. Bell's is.

Ditch the badge. The tablet is pretty sweet though. Although sometimes even just having a mount for it in the car is enough for somebody to try and break in and look for where you're hiding it in the car (even if you don't hide it in the car).

Lose the badge and the tablet. I'd only use it on road trips.

I say remove it man. The lettering is too large. I like Steven's type-s badge because of the size and shape.

The TL looks out of place. Debadge please

Honestly, you don't have to take it off just because some of the people here disapprove of it. Remember, it's your car, not ours! If you like the way it looks on your car, then by all means, don't let us stop you from being creative.

Just don't be TOO creative: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/red-alert-tl-hottest-844443/

Not feeling it either and agree with most of you. At first it looked good but now I look at it and it does look out of place.

The TL does not look good with any badges on the fender... Just looks really awkward and out of place. Remove it!

^^This!! I'm not a big fan of anything on the fender either. OP it is your choice on rather to remove it or not. Don't let anyone on here tell you what to do to your car. These are all just opinions.

It is not an iPad.

Nonetheless, I say remove them and get a Navi conversion. I just did mine and love it. Can watch movies, back-up camera, GPS, and other things? So worth it.

Exactly! The TL looks too large and it is very plain to be placed on the car in that area.

The badge needs to go IMHO, but it's your car so keep it if you like it.

As for the tablet, keep it until you do your nav conversion this summer.
