Two questions:

For the headlights, I see the cover that warns about the 25,000 volts - once I get that off with a T20 - is it that easy to replace the bulbs? (Which I have.) My problem is the T20 is unusual and the T20s I have dont seem to fit....

For the foglights, looks like I can get to them from the bottom to replace the bulbs (which I have), my problem is how best to remove those annoying plastic clips without breaking them - any ideas? What tool works best for these?

Thanks! ]]> Xorg http://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=753073 TL: 03 TL New headunit, sub wont work http://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=753063&goto=newpost Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:14:03 GMT My friend installed a new alpine headunit for me, the sound of speakers is noteceably weaker than before, and today i noticed that the sub in the back does not work, so all the speakers work find but without the sub it sound cheap.

I've installed an Ipod using an Aux cable and was looking into upgrading the stock speakers with something a little better. My budget is about $200. I'm not looking for something real fancy but a good bang for the buck.
I've gone through posts here and i know Reach was recommending a cable mod by one of the other mods but for now i dont have too much to spend. CAn someone please recommend what would fit my budget?

I listen to rock from70's and 80's and trance!

ps - i have heatware/ebay ratings and was wondering if someone is willing to sell 4.73A and above white navi dvd?

*Note*: This shop previously attempted to install the iSimple peripheral for our TL's and told me the device is not compatible and I had to return it since I already was charged the installation of a non-working product.

Any feedback would greatly be appreciated before the install.

Hi,
Does anyone know if this scan tool can change settings like:

1. relock timer 30s instead of 60s (or vice versa)
2. unlock all doors on keyfob button press once (instead of driver door)
3. other personalized settings

or does it only read diagnostic codes, and reset the CEL ?

Currently using Alpine SPX-137R for front stage and a 12 inch sub powered by a JL Audio 300/4. The rear channel seems to went to perma-low impedance protection. Opened it and check if anything is visibly wrong, ie. something burned out or came off, nothing seems wrong (with my untrained technical eye). So debating on getting new amps.

TSX appareantly requires an amp that has differential-balanced input so you don't have to modify much with the signal. So I'm leaning towards JL amps.
The pricing on the Alpine pdx causes me to lean towards alpine.

Having 150w rms to each front sounds like a good thing. 100w sounds good as well but 150w is more enticing.

Looking at the Alpine PDX 4.150 (150x4) and JL HD600(150x4). Power rating on both amp are basically identical. No where on Alpine's product site says it has differential-balanced input.

I'm looking for versatility for expansion later. So Alpine PDX-5 (75x4 + 300x1) and JL HD900 (100x4 + 500x1) are good alternative just incase I want to have my speakers in the rear door to be working. I can easily just connect it.

What are your opinions? ]]> xaznperswaesonx http://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=752250 TL: Volume is adjusting with throttle. http://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=752221&goto=newpost Fri, 13 Nov 2009 23:32:52 GMT I have a 02 tls with a pioneer premier headunit.

The control panel still turns on, the display and all the switching, volume, etc. all work fine, but there is absolutely no sound coming out of any of the speakers. I have a feeling that the problem is within the amp or connections to the amp. Does anyone have any idea where the amp is located? Is it a separate amplifier or is it integrated with the control preamplifier in the main console?
