06 Fog light housing

Man I was driving the other day and I guess a rock busted one of my fog light housings. Is there a place to buy one OEM or even aftermarket for a cheap price?

welcome to the club-the foglights on my 06 tsx cracked within the first 6-months. I was lucky-the dealer replaced them as a one-time goodwill. I then put rockblocker on them and no problems (knock-on-wood).

Just replaced mine last weekend. I bought a left and right OEM foglight assembly off ebay. I put some Lexan polycarbonate in front of the glass as a protector. Only time will tell if it will work.

I still have the passenger side OEM fog light. I am thinking I should put it up for sale. What side is yours cracked on?

My driver's side foglight finally just broke after being cracked for months. Its been broken for a few months now. Now, after getting my finances back in order from buying my house, I'm going to order a new one from Delray. $20 more than the ebay ones and its OEM. Worth it if you ask me. I'm hoping that if I order it tonight or tomorrow it'll get to me by next week and I can install it on my 4 day weekend. And put rockblocker on it.

Delray has them up for $117. I actually wound up getting an aftermarket light for $85. I'll report back when I change it out as far as fit and finish. I remember reading somewhere (can't remember where) that the brackets on the aftermarkets don't always line up right, but I figure I can alway reuse the factory bracket if it comes to that.

Got an email from Lamin-X today that my film shipped today

That would be awesome to get some $85 aftermarket ones I just need the glass housing anyway. Where did you get the aftermarket ones from? I think I'll wrap them in some yellow transparent vinyl since I think my yellow bulbs aren't yellow enough for me lol.

The aftermarket light shipped today. Its just gotta get from California to Florida, so it shouldn't take too long. Not like its coming from Hong Kong or anything. I'll post some pics once I get it. Hoping for the beginning of next week or so.

As for the film, I got the Lamin-X brand film. Others here have gotten it. Just google it and you'll come up with their web site. They have a pre cut kit for the TSX fog lights. I think it was like $20 or $25 including shipping. And yes you can get them in yellow.

Congrats! And at the young age of 93

So, can anyone confirm that in order to replace the fog lights you absolutely must pull the bumper? If so, why? From what I've seen you should be able to do it from the bottom with the proper tools.

rockblocker is no longer in business so you will have to get it somewhere else
