I think that the Casper's Shields are made for USDM H4 applications that means you have to used them on you USDM Stock Headlights.

Can someone back this up?

^For sure those are not "JDM". Heres a wild guess; You bought them from ebay?

JDM ones are plastic, non-black housing, & has clear/amber corners.
