I wouldn't trade my lights for these if they were free, there's too much going on in there. Simple and clean, that's my style. And good luck finding replacement parts if something goes wrong.

holy baby jesus. 1.4k for the headlights w/o xenon kit?? might as well get some wheels or tires, or coils and use the rest for a detail

Bump. Anyone know where I can get this grille? I tried ebay australia, singapore, UK, hong kong etc and I tried alibaba.
Anyone got a link to one of those OEM honda accessory sites that may have this grille?

Go to google.uk. I searched but prices were expensive...lots of individual parts. There's a forwarding company we could use if there was enough interest...

I'll look again and post a link in a little.

That grille won't fit pre-facelift models or Modulo bumpers.

Have you found a facelift front bumper?

There's really about 9 parts: H badge, grille assembly, right upper and lower chrome accent, left upper and lower chrome accent, and upper chrome accent. There's two locking washers for the badge, but they can be had locally.

I'd want the rear H, accord badge, and Type-S badge (have an SE), as well as the door sill plates. Would be lots of monies!

Here is the Partlist with prices in €. Didnt know which part you need and which you can use from your Acuragrille. Thats the pricelist from a Hondadealer. Its not complete because he got not more time, and he knew that I didnt want to buy this part, so he was a little pissed.LOL

Wish there was a part # for just the grille as a whole. This is complicated

Rough math...but that's about 400 to 450 US...

The one I found on eBay UK was about 180 US...but he shipped to the UK only. I looked at getting it forwarded, but that was a bit involved.

Has anyone found out more information about the headlights or where to get them for US delivery?

Those headlights look pretty nice, but it depends if the hookups and features can work on the TSX.

I have the headlights in my hands
They are not plug and play and everything needs to be rewired

bixenon instead of xenon, seperate blinker and parking light, cornering lights, and auto leveling motors instead of manual adjustment

it's gonna take a lot of work to get them to function correctly

Yeah, I love the lights but with the wiring as kostantinos mentioned, definitely way too much work.

Little part of me was hoping it would be an easy wiring job! After all...aren't all these models made in generally the same factory?

I had no prior experience in wiring and it only took about an hour for me. Its easy and it can be customized to your liking.

if you have all the connectors, know how to solder, are handy and know how to mod things, and have basic electical knowledge, then yes.. it's quite easy

but most people I know wouldn't be able to do it

Nope! 28 years as a Diesel technician I have a bag of tricks up my sleeves. There is more than double sided tape holding the 07 TSX emblem in place.

Just saw the link and saw your car Evo9. I must say that is one hella ride. Loooks fabulous. May I ask where did you order the delta rims and how much the cost? I'd also appreciate if you can post the rear and console led you installed. I am looking to get that part too.

Thanks!

Thank you for the compliment!

The wheels you can get from the link below.

You will need to replace the centre caps. Link below for replacement caps.

You will notice below the AC vents a cover hanging below. The LED's are mounted behind the cover. I did not take a picture of the LED expose like the fronts.

Thanks!

The install was easy. The North American car does not have the red & gray wire in the same location as the Euro & Japanese model. So I had to source it from the harness below the auto shifter. There you will find the red & gray wire needed to make the connection. I am very satisfied with everything I have installed on this car. Everything fits right & went together without any hiccups.

Keep in mind with this light kit it comes on when you turn the head/park lights on. It does not comes on & goes out with the dome light like the front foot well lights.

Installed the Saloon grille on my wagon today. Here are some quick snapshots. It was starting to get dark, and I was in a parking structure ,too. Please excuse the poor lighting. I'll post proper photos next time.

Looks very good! If the front Areo bumper was not available, that's the route I would have gone.
