Okay guys...I had a question...when I got my 03 Accord I noticed that my steering wheel audio/cruise control keys don't lit up at night while I found out that my friend's TSX, which has the same steering wheel, actually do. So what's the dealio with that? do yours lit up or not?

well both the accord and the tsx have 2.4l k24a engines and i had always wondered why the tsx had 200hp and the accord only had 160hp well i found out the engines are actually a lil different the tsx engine having bigger ports or sumtin for better air movement

I guess the engine in TSX is the same as RSX Type-S and I agree w/ you about the size. (I love that engine).

no clue offhand...just be very care of the airbag...unplug the battery before you start picking around....and make sure you have your radio code.

They didn't light up until the 2005 model I believe. No point in going to the dealer, my 2004 does not have the backlit controls but they can be retrofitted.

I guess I should look around and find a good deal on the steering wheel.  I like the new gauges too. I might try to customize mine after I get out of summer school.
