I don't believe the JDM ones have a reflector, but you don't notice unless you're shining a light directly onto it (consequently, non-reflector tails are illegal in the US)

No side reflector, and the reverse clear is smoked.

You can really tell the difference when you see them in person. At least I can.

For the hatchbacks, JDM could have the rear fog light in the center tail light as well.

Umm, no. You are confused with UKDM/EDM tail lights.

I'll default to the people who have seen these first hand. But for reference, I got that info from:

http://yhst-1408381693991.stor....html

Is that site incorrect?

The site is correct. It's showing the difference between the EDM and JDM lights. I have JDM tail lights, and no it doesn't have the fog light.

The harness is different also along with the lights that light up. The amber part that is the turn signal lights up when the lights are on and gets brighter when the signals are on.
