It's been over 3 years and no one answered LMAO!

Did you end up changing the fog lights or not? Because that's what I am thinking of doing and that's how I found your post.

Yes, they outline it in the owner's manual.

Good luck trying to replace a cracked lens though. You have to replace the entire assembly which costs ~$400!! There are a couple of vids on youtube for some DIY fixes for cracked lenses but you'd think it would be a common enough problem that Acura would make replacement lenses...

Anyone know where I can get a 'used' foglight assembly?

I just happened to do this over the weekend. I couldn't find the procedure but I figured it out by mirroring it from various DIY threads for other cars. I basically cracked open the inside plastic fender while steering your wheel all the way to the opposite so you get enough space to sneak your hand in there. I also had to crack open the plastic cover the front bumper for easy access. I replaced mine with 3000k yellow HID and put a yellow tint on the lense as well to cool off the glare. Very happy with my result.
