fog lights for 99 TL?

What is the best way to get fog lights for a 99 tl and not look bad. is there any kind of fog lights acura offered for the 99 tl that would fit. i have a fog light kit now but i really dont want to cut holes in the grille or make the car look ghetto with cheap fog lights.

nope. acura never offered fog lights on the 99-01 TL. You will have to do custom work.
some have custom fitted the accord fog to fit

That's pretty nice, I'd be interested in doing that. What do I need to get it to work, Joseph? I mean besides the light assembly? What kind of plastic is that?

fsttys right, acura never made fog lights for the 99-01 TL.

but HONDA of Japan did, for the twin INSPIRE.

You could search around for 99-01 inspire fog lights, would look SEXY

Those will not bolt up to the stock bumper without major modifications. Would be a different story if you had the Inspire front bumper.
Songoku has a diy on mounting Accord fogs. https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...ghlight=accord

I just did the 03 conversion on my 99 and the body shop used the 99-01 ballast/igniters on my car not realizing that the 02-03 are different. You can use them but your gonna come into a problem with the cap at the back of the light to close them up. The cap for the 02-03 is different from the 99-01, it's smaller. So If I were you I would start looking into getting a set of igniters/ballast from the 02-03.

Where did you guys get the wiring for the fog lights? I have an 03 front end, but the fog lights aren't wired up cuz I dont know where to get the wiring kit from. I searched ebay and found TSX fog lights with the wiring harness, but would this fit on the TL? Can someone help please!
