Nope, Dan just told me we can't match, you'll have to get it online but we can make a deal on install. Maybe they'll give me a break to have em installed and have my RT cat pulled and replaced with the stock cat.

lol my body is not meant for stuff like this anymore man, my back started hurting after the first two. Stopped to eat dinner and never came back. Cause on my TL's, you have to take the back seat out in order to get to the top of the strut so I said, F that and did it later.

Oh yea..south on willamette to go home 
On the 2G side there's a fog mod that allows you to have just fogs on with out headlights. Kinda like how the new MDK rolls. Really really cool mod. Looks super good with my HID fogs

There's gotta be someone who's done it to the TSX.
If not, we could find a way Just gotta find which wire gets juiced when your headlights are on, tap into it, then plug in to ACC fuse and should call it good. Same idea, same results..hopefully.
Oh and post before this...that was supposed to be MDX..LOL

^^ Holy intense DIY Batman!! Man you must have been really dedicated to get that mod done. It's like a million times harder for you than it was for me. It only took me like 15 minutes to get everything prepped and installed. I would never even attempt something like yours. That's just askin for a hefty repair..kinda like what happened to vthree in that same thread. That's just too scary for me. Props on gettin it done tho!!

Quick question on that DIY...have you fixed it to where they won't flash with the parking lights? I'm assuming you don't have HID fogs cuz if you did, I'd be hella worried bout the ballast/igniter.
I like my mod for that reason. My fogs won't flash when I unlock my car. They only turn on when the key is in the II position and I hit the switch to turn em on

^^ I do have HID fogs, I only use them for dawn/dusk/night driving otherwise I leave them off. I had to train myself to flip the switch when I got out the car.
You can bypass the second half of the write up and the fogs come on independently of every light and they wont blink when you lock the doors, however; if you don't turn them off they'll stay on and empty your battery. So both ways have pros and cons.

^^ ive trained myself now too.. learned over the past week that they flashed if i left the switch on and i didnt like that.. I really should figure out a way to make mine on and off when ever i press the button instead of just when the parking lights are on.. Ive got the JDM style harness though so i will have to search around and see what i can do for that..

Dude..such a simple mod. I still have an extra diode and fuse I think. Just get a MINI!! add a circuit. Shit I'll get the stuff for you and we'll bust it out when you paint my stuff. It's such a stupid simple mod once you know what wires you need to tap. Literally took like 15 mins with getting everything prepped. And so worth it I love lookin at the front of my car when my fogs are on

Oh and remove intake res plus k&n filter FTW! I thot about icebox for a while but no res is basically the same thing. The drone is kinda annoying outside the car but can't hear it inside at all so I don't really care anymore. Plus it was way cheaper!

Ok so new meet how about the second or third wednesday night of october sound around say 7:30 - 8:00 pm for start time and do wash square again since it's in the middle for most members

well right now I dont turn my fogs on that much because I still have to swap out the corner bulbs to match my headlights. Because my corners are amber but my fogs are yellow and my headlights are white, so thats too much color. I only turn my fogs on at night.
But a meet suggested above is a good time.

oh yea!! Super duper easy. I think it's just the thought of having to work with something electrical is what scares ppl off. And the fact that in his photos he has an extra step that most people don't need. He coulda just left it out but with the pics I guess he had to explain what he was doing. If you ever want to do it just let me know and I can guide you step by step. Or do it for you if one of these meets ever stays intact...LOL
I think my TL-S is pretty plain - Stock wheels and all. I like the way it looks though, but wish I had at least 18s. Fobstylez's TL-S must be pretty nice-looking though. I'd like to see it in person.
