    Will a set of 225-55-17 tires replace a set of 235-45-17 tires on a 2004 acura tl?

    No, this is not an acceptable swap. The 225/55-17 tires will be 1.41" too large in overall diameter and will cause your speedometer to read 63.47 mph at a true 60 mph. Handling, ride, mileage, and performance will be adversely effected. A 195/55-17 would be acceptable. MY advice is to stick with the OEM size.

    Replace headlight bulb on 2001 Acura TL?

    The HID bulb is a "D2R" type which comes in different colors/brightness. You can find these bulbs on-line for way cheaper then what an auto parts store or dealers sell them for. The first step in replacing the bulb is to make sure your keys are OUT of your ignition. Second step is to remove the black plastic cover (attached to to the headlight assembly) by removing the two torx screws. Third step you want to twist the black cover to unlock and remove it. Look at the the cover it will tell you. Fourth step is to twist power connection to the bulb which I believe it will be counterclockwise. Finally after the connector is removed the bulb is exposed. To remove it just simply push in on the silver wire/tab and lift to the left. This should release the bulb.

    Assuming that your TL has an automatic transmission, the "keyhole" is an emergency override to unlock the shift lever if needed. Simply place your Acura's key (or anything of a similar shape and width - a feeler gauge will do in a pinch) in the slot, and you'll be able to move the shift lever into any desired gear. Use this feature with caution...
