Acura Fog Lights

Has anyone's fog lights gone out? My friend's RDX's fog lights on both sides has gone out. The lights work fine, but the glass covering part has gone out completely on both sides. The Acura OEM part website sells each of them separately for $93.00 each, but that is a lot of money. Can anyone give me some reference to some sight that sells them for cheaper or possibly some alternative? I bought a pair from ebay thinking that they would fit, but it was much smaller and doesn't work. It seems like the one I bought from ebay need extra mounting customization or something... Thanks everyone~!

has anyone found a stone guard film that you can apply on the fog lights which do not turn yellow or discolour?

Try these, I have only had them for a couple of weeks but first impression is quite good. My only concern is that I likely would have waited for spring/summer to install so I didn't have any trapped moisture under the film. The instructions say it is normal and should dissipate as the film breaths (couple days or weeks) but with the winter here I am not so sure.

Thanks for the link. seems to be a pretty useful mod.
Do you think the headlight film is worth the extra $$?

I haven't hear anyone's headlight cracking yet.

Also they are offering group buys; I just email them asking what is the minimum purchase.

Maybe a bunch of us would like to all order at once for the foglight mod?
It is 24 shipped from the supplier to NY; maybe we can get it down to $15 shipped for everyone on this forum?

Count me in for a group buy for my RDX! I just can't decide on what color?

Wow, I was about to order some but saw how much shipping was to Calgary, AB ...$29 for shipping is a little excessive! Going to check out local shops first for Xpel stuff to have installed.

Ended up order a set for the fog lights. Seems to be the thickest film for the lights versus the options I had locally.
