From Acura TL to EX35

[ex35tdt]

Just got 2010 EX35 last week, Nav with Bose+AVM. I leased 2007 G35x in 2006 so I feel right at home with this car. By the way, I got Acura TL 2009 after lease end. Love this car too. Got a wreck, so now I replace it with EX35.

TL has a few things that doesn't exist in EX that I miss. Audio system in TL is far superior than G or EX. Nav screen is super clear, bright, and huge (8in). You can use any features when driving with TL. EX is a bit annoying since it locks quite many features when driving. TL has the capability to show air pressure in psi for all 4 tires so you can tell which one is high/low or about right. Very handy.

Other than that I love everything about EX. Like 3-d Nav and its software. Impressed about AVM. Surprised when I see it also has backup sensors. Advanced air cleaning is conceptually cool too. Of course, I love the exterior look and interior look of EX to buy one. EX handles great, strong power from start, and brake is a bit better than TL.

Just like many, I put in 4300K HID in low beam. ddm tuning sells bulb for only $12.50, whole kit for just $35. I bought one set @4300K and one 5000k.
After installed, I had to take it out next day since glaring is not tolerable. So I took out the bulb and paint the bottom of the bulb (make it looks similar to D2R bulb) and glaring is well under controled now.

Next I will replace all my interior lights and parking light (the one protruding next to high beam bulb) with LED. They should be here tomorrow. I plan on modify the projector when I have a chance to get to it to get more clear cut-off line. Anyone has done this to EX35 and any experience to share?
I will try to take some pictures when I have a chance.
