Default JDM headlight Vs. USDM Headlight

I searched under JDM headlight, but did not get the answer that I was looking for. I got a pair of JDM headlights for my 4th, 1994 si, gen prelude today. These headlights are obvioulsy one piece where USDM headlight appear to be two pieces. My question is, other then this what are the differences? On the auction these came off of a "rare japanes prelude" it said. I was kind of curious what made it rare.

I think you meant to say that they are PLASTIC, USDM are glass.

JDM Lights, single piece
BB1 - Plastic & Black surround
BB4 - Plastic & Silver surround

Also; single piece units cost more to produce hence are only availble on a few BB4s JDM but on all BB1
