Acura doesn't sell the OEM lights anymore. Junk yard wants $65 plus shipping for OEM. Any help with non OEM lights would be appreciated. Thanks

they can work, but by no means will they fit like OEM. You'll have to play around with them a bit to fit. Be creative, they'll work

there should be a plug taped to a harness about a third the way along the firewall I believe. basically the inside is prewired. so if you have a 98-99, remove the knock out plate and there will be a connecter to plug the switch into.

Here you go dude, all the information you need.

OEM fog lights for the Honda Pilot (03-05) are identical to the OEMs for the 97-99 CL.

You can find them on ebay fairly easily.
I just recieved one and replaced a cracked foglight on my CL.

You will have to unscrew the back metal plate from the Honda Pilot fog light and replace it with the black plate (housing) from the OEM fog lights on the Acura CL.

This will allow you to fit it directly back into the slot for the original one and attach it the same.

If you do not have the original metal black plate/housing for the back of the fog light on the CL you are pretty much out of luck, Acura doesn't carry them anymore.
You will have to customize a fit or go to a junkyard to get them on your CL if that is the case.

Good luck!
