^ Lol I like how Ricky and Arthur have already posted there. With that price I wouldn't be surprised if they are already sold and the OP hasn't updated the thread yet.

Nope. They sent me a new harness but it doesn't even look like it's compatible. I'm certain it's missing a plug. The original one has 4 plugs, 2 per side of the car, while the new one they sent me only has 3. I don't understand how the system would work without this 4th one since it would be connected to the stock harness. I need to e-mail customer service again to see what is up since this is just brutal.

There is a thread where some other guy made his own "kit" from buying materials through ebay. He wired his setup so that the DRLs and his headlights went on at the same time. I can't remember the guys name off the top of my head but you might be able to find it if you search up DRL stuff.

Myron buy a 3G TL-S in the spring!

Hmm too bad those wheels aren't 19's. Do you know if those would clear brembo's? Or would I have to do some fender work along with spacers?

oh I wish I could but I have priorities and car isn't one of them. I doubt I will get anything nice in the next few years. I got into watches recently and I think I wanna get a nice collection going so that's gonna take up a lot of my money haha priorities you know

with those wheels I would go with a 15mm spacer up front, and no spacer in the back. Fenders would have to be rolled in the back. Front would be ok I think. Slammed on those with polished lip and powder coated centers would look so sick on any car. If I still had the 3G, these are the wheels I would be rocking next summer.

Lol are you super cereal? Watches are taking priority over a new ride? What is the world coming to?!?!

I think I'll hold off on wheels. I plan for coilovers and custom a-spec this summer. That will already set me back enough.

Arthur you should buy them and get them powder coated some wild color. Something like.. hyper blue??

I still love my BBS. I will get different lug nuts to give some contrast. Maybe neo chrome or blue chrome lug nuts. And maybe some red bbs center caps.

I might get the JLC DRL Kit. From what I've read, the chance of getting it working properly is more than the V-leds. lol. We shall see.

Lol that one has quite a few problems too. I think their site explicitly states that their kit doesn't remove the DRL error on the dash for some makes. It's annoying how these things are a hit or miss. I should give mine a try again before our true "winter" hits.

Does anyone know how to cut off the damaged battery terminal and replace it with replacement piece? I read it up online but I'm sure I would mess it up even more... the positive terminal broke off from corrosion.. willing to pay for ur time...

@Arthur - yeah man I saw my TL today its all good, everything looks amazing, everything is tip top.
But I won't be getting it back until monday cause there are some electrical problems. Since my seatbelts are locked my airbag light is on (airbags didn't go off) and some minor electrical stuff like my hazards not working and my signal lights. Hopefully all this will be cleared up by monday!

Fuck my cars all good to go but I need 2 new seatbelts for the passenger and the drivers. I called Hondatoy but they were being a bitch to me about how they can't sell me any seatbelts.

Does anybody know where I can get a seatbelt fro my TL? Or do I have to order new?
