I bet the TSX-R lens put out a better overall light-output compared to the stock lens. Correct?

The 2012 tails are the same as 09-11 just with a red bezel.

The TSX-R lens do make a huge difference.

Here are the results of the fantastic work AckTL did on my headlights. Disregard the dirty car:







He was very responsive throughout the whole process...especially considering that he had to find and order a new set of headlights, after I screwed up my pair with a DIY fail!

Blacked out
TSX-R lens swap
Amber reflector left as-is

Ack, how does your trade in program work? Pardon my ignorance.

My 2012 TL is my daily driver, so I can't really send out my tails and be left with nothing to drive due to lack of tails!!

I would take payment and a separate payment for deposit. This deposit would be fully refunded once I receive your stock set back.

I have this set of headlight for sale or trade. They resemble the 2012 style. I only want to trade for OEM 4G TL headlights plus cash.

I am looking for $760 on the pair with customization or $140 plus shipping and your stock pair.

These are OEM headlights. I will send these first, but a deposit of $620 would be required along with payment for $140 plus shipping and your deposit will be fully refunded once I get your OEM headlights back. Same thing as my trade in service, but I am willing to sell these outright..

For sale, no. I do trade ins and can make you any custom set of tail lights. I can also find you a used set and you pay for tail lights + work..



Contact me at BRUCEJTL at GMAIL dot COM, or 732-208-2014.


I will post a couple more pictures soon as this upcoming week I have a few more 4G TL installs.

Man I wish I lived in NJ. Want to get one of these tricked out headlights (ideally with LED DRLs and a replacement for the stock halogen for high beams) but I don't have enough confidence in myself (nor the tools/garage) to do it myself even with your mods. I'd love to drive in to your shop and have you do it.

If you're ever out in Southern California...

Turnaround time: is about a week once I have received your tail lights and of course on the transit time. I will be sending them back to you once I receive full payment using UPS or USPS insured for the full value with tracking.

how would i drive the car if i send you the tail lights for a week

This thread was created a couple years ago. Now I have three sets of every years headlights and tail lights, so I introduced the trade in program with the 4G TL.

I would ask for payment and deposit for my set, I would send you my OEM set (if yours are OEM and normal use) with work done. Then you swap, send me back your stock set and I refund you the deposit in full unless there are deep scratches/cracks/not OEM..
