Location services alternatives?

I am running CM of Lollipop without Gapps. I have been able to find substitutes for most google services. But location based apps wont work. I figured this is because they use google play services' location api instead of the AOSP's location service. Is there a way to change them to use the default location service or is there a perfect swap for google's services that can emulate google's location service for the apps to run.

Thanks
