Acura TL 2004 LCD
Ok.. I just got this badboy
Of course mine is the Dark Grey (anthracyte metal)
Here is what my interior looks like... Anyone have any ideas how to remove the useless HVAC display and perhaps move it somewhere else, and put a REAL TOUCHSCREEN VGA display there??? I am planning on buying the Xenarc. The space there would even fit a 8 inch LCD without a problem. But I don't trust the quality of the 8" lillis to do that just yet...
I will probably be buying the service manual to learn how to remove all that plastic and learn the wiring diagram before I attempt this. Also, it seems like I am dealing with 2 char LCDs here.
Well, just wanted to throw the idea out there for any 2004 TL owners in this forum =) Let's put our brains together and figure this out! make those Navi owner jealous and regret their $2000+ investment

Hey Acura, where are you in MD? I'm in Germantown, just got done with my install (had Myer Emco do the monitor and wiring per my instructions) Here are a few pics of my 2000 TL from a small car meet up in PA last weekend -> http://detrimental.org/eyecandy/2004...rmeet-brettwmd
Do these TLs still have the transmission problem (that honda/acura are refusing to admit to), or was that only on the prior shaped cars?
Never be afraid to do something yourself. Remember - amateur built the Ark, professionals built the Titanic.
Oh I'm so jealous.. that car is so badass....
If I didn't need to have something to pull my boat around, I'd sell my SUV and get that...
Can't wait to see how ur CarPC install comes out... GoodLuck!!!
