Accord & TL Parts
ok fellow TL'ers, the parts thing for 3g TL is starting to bug me.
right now i'm searching out some new shocks and most places keep telling me that if the shock fits the 2004 Accord they will work on a 3G TL. the shock size may be the same but what about shock stiffness?? can anyone confirm what the oem shock is for Accord and is it the same on the TL?
shox.com says:
"Bilstein does not list them for your car. KYB lists them the same as an Accord up to 2004 and some people have been known to use the Bilstein shocks for the Accord on the 2004 TL."
so should i consider shocks that are listed for 2004 Accord??
thanks
any dealer TL'ers here? please chime in.....

.:KCCO:.
i think that a lot of the suspension pieces are similar. most places sell springs titled "accord 03+ and TL 04+"
everywhere i have checked it states that the accord is heavier. the same exact springs placed in an accord are slighty lower then the TL. ex. 1.3 drop for accord and 1.2 for TL. dont quote me on those numbers, but something like that

anyone here that does not like KYB? i've had a set of on my 76' firebird since 1989 and they are still holding up find.
i find a site that has decent prices on Tokico Illumina shocks, although they list Accord i think i may go with Illimuina's.

really good prices here:
