fog lights broken = \

was washing my car and came across my fog lights and found out that the glass cover was broken *size of a quarter *

does anyone know if I could only get the glass replacement? or I would have to get the whole unit ?

i'm hoping honda would have the replacement glass for it since those fog lights are costly to replace.

I guess i'll found out tomorrow from the dealer.

That would be me.

For those of you who didn't read my previous post I cracked my fog light a couple a weekends ago. I was following a truck and it threw up some gravel. The outer glass of my right fog light is cracked, its a round "dent" about the size of a quarter.

The light works fine though. Standing more than a few feet away you can't make out the crack with the lights on or off.

I replaced the lights last weekend, the damage was $50 at the dealer's. Couldn't stand the thought of driving a mutilated TLS

Fogged Out

Dude,

I broke one of my fog lights, too...ONE week into owning my TL S-Type! LAME! Like 1000bpm...A rock hit the fog light and cracked the lens.

The dealer had to replace the WHOLE unit. It was $50 for the unit and like $50 for installation. Ugh.

Fog Light Replacement

If you were charged $50.00 for replacing one fog light you got ripped off. I just had one replaced by the dealer and they did it under warranty. It took less than ten minutes. They didn't charge for the lens either.

$50

Dude,

Yeah...I tried to get it replaced under warranty but they said the damage wasn't due to Acura's fault...which is true.

Whatever...it's fixed...I'm happy.

I guess my dealer (Jones Acura) is pretty generous about warranty claims. I also had the shift gate replaced under warranty because one of my "friends" scratched it while checking out my car. I told the dealer how it happened and they replaced it anyway.
