Default Difference between the JDM and USDM EG Taillights

Okay, I know there's a difference between how they look.. but what I wanted to know (searched and couldn't find any threads on it, apologize if I didn't look hard enough) was if they lighted up different... ex. parking light, brake light... etc... thanks

i think the jdm ones don't have the reflectors in them, which is why they are not DOT approved. correct me if i'm wrong

I have those JDM ones on my stock civic. It came with them and I now that nobody has ever changed them. Does it have something to do with being made in Canada? I don't know, just wondering.

Almost all of the USDM civics are made in Canada.

Oh. Sorry about the newb question. Just wondering why mine has the JDM tail lights. I bought the car off of the orignal owner (family friend) and they never did anything to it.

Know whats funny........

if you like JDM you're on a bandwagon.


If you go with a bodykit you get flamed.

Who the hell cares....it all gets old at one point or another.

Hold on now. Its not liking JDM that makes you a bandwagon jumper. Its when you are going to convert the little things that are almost unnoticeable like JDM tails that it becomes pointless. i mean look at the diffrence. <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by niann &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote"></TD></TR></TABLE> is that worth it? i dont see how.
and as far as body kits.... its cool if you are getting a body kit but the EG+ forum is not the place to talk about it, hence the flaming. Do you think you would get flamed for having a body kit in A/C? no you wouldnt and why not because it belongs there.
I think they should make a M@d T!te JDM y0! forum so that things could clean up here in the EG forum. Just my 2 cents

I have JDM EG tail lights. Everything is the same for lighting up except there's no corner parking light bulb. Just the two red panels light up instead of three.

OH gosh, please just shut up. You shouldn't even care, you maybe have a honda or acura that you do things to because you want to. Because you want to and because you pay for it. People focus too much care on things that don't even matter. It's a waste of breath and typing much like my sentences to you right now. Thank you for helping to waste my time typing this to you.

i have jdm tail lights on my eh2 .. the bulbs on the reflector don't light up on the jdm version .. the lights look slightly .. and i mean very slightly more darker .. the back up light is really noticeable .. and no reflectors .. but that's it .. i got mine for $50 shipped (inner and outer) .. i wouldn't pay any more than $80 for it .. that's my opinion ..
