Awesome.

I recently bought one of these and its working well too with my iPhone 3g. Doesn't like my antique 15GB Gen3 iPod though. I'll probably just get a new Classic and leave it in the car.

DO NOT TOUCH THE YELLOW HARNESS!!!

THIS IS THE AIRBAG SYSTEM!

The stereo is very easy to get out... just put your hands on the top of the airvent panel that goes up over the top of the dash and...

its basically the same, the panel surrounding the gear lever pulls straight up... the rest is fairly obvious. Getting your fingernails under it and getting a good grip is the problem.

Because the battery is a lousy place to connect... for starters its covered in acid and dirt, and looks ugly.

Theres a 20A B+, A+ and earth in the drivers kick panel, and the 100A B+ in the engine...

THey are industry standard D2S bulbs, something like...

I was under the impression that from the outside at least the current TSX is the same as our Euro (CL9), the key difference being that ours is LHD, and has an interior thats similar to the Thai built...

Sorry, I am emoticon challenged.

If they are the same width (7") and offset (?) as the Euro 17s I'd put 225s on as per the stock 17s.

225 is about as wide as you should go on 7" rims tho, so thats why the shop is getting nervous.

Well, my point was that none of the bulbs in a car are really xenon... and that all uses, either for HIDs or incandescent bulbs, are wrong. technically.

Represent.

If you were serious about making some marginal improvment to a car such as this you would put in an aftermrket ECU that can drive a coil-pack and get rid of the distributor.

* They are poorly made
* They don't do anything that any other "High Energy" system does when above 3000RPM
* People putting them in cars do terrible sub-par sub-OEM work that’s not water-proof and...

Acutally HID lights are technically called Metal Halide Discharge, and the Xenon is just there to improve initial start performance.

I totally agree... I didn't even realise they made them any more. I used to fix them Back In The Day, and they were not very well made, certainly much worse than anything Honda has made in the last...

Or do it properly...

haha, second "I’m a retard and can't be bothered doing things properly" thread related to oil plugs in 24 hours... nice.

Sorry for being unsympathetic, but you know that mechanics very rarely...

This is where road car brakes are going -

Brake-by-wire...

It boggles me why people do sump plugs up so tight... they arent structural, or under any stress at all... Screwdriver tight is plenty.

Dont use vice-grips or such to take it off, they will just ruin the head. Use a quality peripheral drive socket and long handle, and put a pipe on the handle.

Also, you should use half-inch...

Please keep it in this thread, I'm interested too!

I'd guess that you would still have to get your modded headlight engineer approved after installing the leveller and washer.

For those after actual performance from their headlights I highly...

Yeah, just did, you didnt need to take the speedo itself apart, so it should all be fine :)
