I've looked all over for the last 3 days. Needing a drivers side REAR side marker. Found plenty on ebay and amazon, but for base TL's. And yes (as it appears) the Type S connector will NOT fit a base TL side marker. The Type S has a wider connector. Dealer wants $105 for the OEM part, it's looking like my only option unless someone can help. I went to a pick and pull here in my hometown that had a 2007 base TL, and grabbed both rear side markers (red vs smoke) and they will not match up, not that I would of used the red ones anyway but I was curious if Acura really made the Type S side markers a different "size" connection wise....which they did. Anyone have an idea/info?

It’s been a long time since installation. But I installed the type-s side markers on my base. I don’t recall it being to hard. And I didn’t have to change anything (clip or wiring wise).

Thank you so much! The one on Ebay would be perfect if only it was for the drivers side rear versus the passenger rear. Looks like my best option may be the other link you posted., Thanks again, if anyone has any other suggestions holler at me!

put a Want to Buy (WTB) ad up here and hope someone is selling theirs!


or alternatively, buy the base ones and mod the connector.


Or check a local junkyard

or even Search Results


I just typed in 2007-2008 TL and chose the Rear sidemarker




It doesn't let me post the exact link so you'll have to re-do the search yourself. Hope that helps!

Hi guys! Raising this thread from the dead. For those that don't know, they now make adapters for about $10. Amazing (click link: NSLUMO Rear Side Marker Lights Plug Adapter Wiring Harness Sockets Wire for 2007-2008 Acura-TL Type S Led Rear Side Marker Reflector Parking Lamps Replacement https://a.co/d/cn4gTNh), and ebay has them too.
