Default Do these look authentic?

I bought these last week and they come in Monday. How do they look? If it all works out, the current UK tails may get the boot

Those all red are nice. Though I did some pointless research a while back, studying JDM integras and could have swore that on all the models honda used the tail lights that we have on our 94-96 or was it 97 models. You know, the ones with the amber turn signals instead of all red like you have. Though, I could have been high on crack at the time too.

Pointless observation: those tabs are Washington tabs

Aloha,
Brandon

94-97 tails and jdm 98 up tails are amber ....this is correct

but 94-97 usdm and jdm tails have a dark burgundy color.....while 98 up jdm have amber turn signal with the light red that you see on usdm 98 up tails.

I've never understood the fascination with tail light colors.

Although, I like the USDM '97s more than the '00s & '01s.

The phenomenon seems to be that whatever you have, you want the other ones.

&lt;--Has all reds but has considered getting amber from an earlier USDM car.

what don't u get???? jdm 98 and up tails are NOT the same as usdm 94-97 tails

YES they both have amber turn signals.....the difference is the the color of RED that the tail is.

94-97 usdm and jdm tails have amber corner with dark red or burgundy taillight

98 and up jdm have amber corner with light red taillight. Same light red as on the 98+usdm tails.....there is a picture with all the colors. LOL

See I heard that was wrong also... From what I understand, the only difference between 94-97 USDM Integra tails, and 98-up JDM tails is that there is no reflector in the JDM tailight, and also there is no spot to plug in the little corner bulb that lights up on the side of tailight... But I could be wrong... Can anyone clarify this...?

Also, it looks like those tails have reflectors, so could the originator of this post check inside to see if there is spot for the corner bulbs to be plugged in...

Yes I am sure......I have sold many set of taillights LOL

98 + JDM taillights look like our 98+ usdm taillights except with AMBER turn signal and no place for a corner wedge bulb.

Trust me I sold a set to Kicker.....do i really need to bust out my pic of the ones I sold???


FOR ALL THOSE THAT DOUBT ME



Now do you guys believe me holy ****......hahahahh light red with amber turn.....these are 98+ jdm

So is it also true then that JDM tails don't have a reflector for when the light is off...?

All of them have a reflector in the brake light as far as I know. The only other thing different about jdm tails is they don't have the wedge bulb that lights up at night to the outside of the corner lights.

USDM has the little triangle that lights up....jdm does not.....usdm wedgebumbs in the outer most part of the taillight almost acts like a sidemarker....but since jdm have real sidemarkers that blink when turning i guess they felt that it was unnecessary to ahve two.

The bulb will not fit where my green arrow points. This is because it is blocked off and is the same for the ukdm and jdm tails. I also found a pic of the JDM 98-01 tails vs the USDM 94-97 tails.

Yeah I knew for sure about the wedgebulb in the corner, but I wasn't sure about the reflector... Good info...
