Well it's been a while guys so I figure I'll do a little update for everyone. Took me a couple months to find the right one but I bought a 03 cl-s 6mt that runs and drives for about 1200 all said in done after the dilevery fees. Bought it from an auction site online and it should be arriving late this week or early next week. So I started prepping the tl to be torn down so I can swap all the necessary parts over to my car and have a nice tl-s that's a 6 speed ��
You're swapping in the majority of the CL-S interior?
If so, sweet, I believe that swap has been done a few times.
Your TL came with GPS or is that an aftermarket unit?
Been looking for the full OEM TL GPS setup for awhile, myself.
If you are willing/able to pull the full gps system, minus the screen, I will buy it off you.
Let me know, thanks.
yeah man i can do that just let me know what all parts i need to remove and we can set up something when i get time to pull it all out
also the screen works its just the part beneath the touch panel has been slow cracking and chipping off but there is a black dot in the center of the screen as well but again it still works just not the best looking piece as seen in the above pics but i know you can get a new screen for a decent price
Please, PLEEEEEEEASE take lots and lots of pics! Snap pics of everything lol!
The pinned 6MT thread is missing all of its pics for documentation.
lol yeah ive noticed that and its kinda irritating but yeah ill take lot of pics and such to maybe make a new dedicated thread that might get pinned again with pics this time haha

Awesome, thanks, will check online and see if I can find the full parts list.
I can find a screen replacement, that is easy enough. Are you keeping the same dash panel/HVAC setup for the GPS or switching to the non-GPS dash/HVAC setup? I only ask, so that I know if I will have to find the dash panel/HVAC control setup for GPS.
I am in no rush, so, sure, whenever you have time to pull it is fine.

Will get that part list to you asap.
ill be switching over to the standard ac controls so you will get the whole dash piece etc only thing you should need would be a new screen
i might even swap over to the new dash to make it a little more easy lol
Ugh I'm so freaking jealous you guys can't even imagine
you can sign up on erepairables.com and get a one year pass for 200 and the browse around the local areas for a 6mt cl-s for yourself lol just takes time. me and my father are driving 9 there and 9 hours back to go get this car on Thursday, its in Chicago heights IL and we live in north Alabama. where are you from?
Pretty sure you should be able to have a successful part out of the car, so that should help in recouping the money you spent on getting it.
indeed im hoping to recoupe most if not all i invested in it lol
and yeah it was a super tight fit and fun getting it off the trailer lol the brakes were stuck so i had to pull the rear calipers off and roll it that way
Got the motor pulled out. I think to save on time of swapping lots of parts from one motor to the other I'm just gonna do a quick timing belt and water pump in the new cl-s motor and keep the 3.5 as a back for later.
But anyeays gonna start the interior stuff tomoro morning
