I know that Acura sells them. Although original, they can get quite pricey (might want to call your local Acura dealer for pricing). As for Ebay, I'm not too sure about buying from them since they need to properly program it for the remote to work with your car.

Were you not given a spare key (each TL comes with a "1", "2", and "Valet" keys)

Do not buy them from Acura, they will charge you an arm and a leg for it. I bought mine off ebay for $15 and programmed it for free using instructions on this site.

Here's the part numbers from the one I bought, I have an 05 also.
FCC ID: OUCG8D-387H-A
IC: 850G-G8D387HA
G8D-387H-A
MEMORY 1 or 2

Here's the post on how to program the remote, I followed the instructions, it was very easy and straight forward.

Thanks whiteLegend for your reply! I hope it will work with my Acura as well

Yes, they do have logo and everything because they are original but used just a little bit.

Buy the remote from Ebay its cheaper and also the companies that sell the remote offer a 30 day return and exchange policy, I just brought a second remote for my 04 for $25 and its works

I've seen those other instructions several places on the internet but, for what it's worth, I find these instructions for programming 1st gen TL remotes easier:

Use the following procedure when replacing one or both remote transmitters:
1. Open the driver's door.
2. Press and hold the driver's master door lock switch up in the UNLOCK position.
3. Quickly insert and remove the key from the ignition switch five times, then insert the key the sixth time, and leave it in the ignition switch.
(This routine must be done within 10 seconds.)
All the doors will lock and unlock to indicate that the control unit is in the program mode.
4. Press either button on the replacement transmitter. All the doors except the driver's door will lock and unlock to indicate that the control unit has accepted the transmitter into its memory. If either transmitter button is pressed again, all the doors will lock and unlock.
5. To program a second transmitter, press either button on that transmitter. The doors should lock and unlock as described in step 4.
6. Release the driver's master door lock switch.
7. To exit the program mode, close the driver's door or remove the key from the ignition switch.
