yeah, for some reason BYU Professors feel a need to have 4 "midterms" per semester, which totally ruins the definition of midterm, but I am not even gonna go there. Pics in 20!

Here they are. Crappy camera, but oh well...









So, there are footwell lights for the 4 main seats, as well as pocket lights in each door (hard to tell in some pics, but they are there and are the perfect brightness) and handle accent lighting.

thanks man. I think for the center display it took 12 LED's around the nav screen, and then I had to get a special board for the radio that is made by DeathMetal, a guy here on the forums. His board was $80-ish, but the other LED's around the screen were only $16. The WHOLE interior conversion (handles, pockets, footwells, all dash illumination, steering wheel (not done yet), sunroof controls, window controls, etc.) only set me back like $175, though. Definitely worth it. I freaking love the way it looks.

Haha, glad you guys like them... you know you are gonna have to put them in now! If I could do it over again, I would change a couple of things, but for the cost and effect, they're hard to beat.

Yeah, navi was totally a requirement when I was shopping. Basically that and the 6MT. I was lucky to only have to go to Colorado to get mine.

Master of Accountancy. I received my Bachelor's degree in Accountancy from Arizona State University in 1996. I was only at BYU for one year to get my Master's degree.

For those of you who have not had the recall done on your car I suggest you get on that ASAP. The power steering hose caused the engine to smoke 5 minutes from driving it. I had to have it towed down to Jodi Wilkinson Acura.. got the car back the next day and they did an excellent job. One worker there said I had a nice TL when he pulled up my car.

Nice! Definitely toyed with the Accounting program for a while, but in the end I decided to pursue a different degree in the Marriott School.

How does one find out if the recall has been done yet? I bought my car in September and don't know if it's been done. I assume they would have checked that when I had it at the dealership last month?

If I were the tech I would've said the same thing. Your car looks great.

thanks, i have the type s wheels on now.

But call the acura dealership and give them your vin number. Ask if any recalls have been done with the vehicle. If not schedule an app. There should be no out of pocket expense on your part. The recall is for power steering hose and windshield wiper reservoir.

I just looked on the Acura Owners site and it says that both recalls are open. I guess I will be going in to the dealership. I think I am gonna go to Jody Wilkinson, though. Mike Hale left my power steering reservoir dangling after the timing belt service and the belt wore a hole straight through it. I am gonna have to spend my weekend fixing it myself. I am pretty much done with them.

I have never dealt mike Mike Hale but i was impressed with Jodi.. they even washed my car and put tire spray on it. It looked as if they waxed it lol.

I would call Jodi, ask for Allen he is the service manager he should be able to take care of you.

Just called Jody Wilkinson. They got me hooked up. They are also going to put on my new power steering reservoir (I already have the part) for no cost. Glad at least one dealership shows some integrity.

Isn't that what happens to everyone?! Haha, no, I never applied. I did well in the pre-reqs but felt that ISys was a better fit for me (since that's what I've been doing for a while) and since the pre-reqs are basically the same, I applied there instead.
