the tails are identical minus the USDM has a small section which is reflective where the JDM's do not..

USDM lights have the reflector because it's a required safety issue... doubt any cop would ever notice but... technically it's illegal to not have them

Same goes for JDM vs USDM corners... that orange corner of ours is just a reflector. although the corners from JDM to USDM do look pretty different (especially since the JDM's have more available styles)

*edit*
Go on ebay for pics... it's barely even noticable

compare this to your stock tailights.if you actually spend money to have this difference,you are an idiot.

read the rules:this belongs in appearance/cosmetic.

Here's a question. Is there any way you could remove that reflector in your USDM tail lights? To where it would be a USDM tail but with the JDM look?

Why not man? Obviously this guy is interested in the JDM tail lights, so he's probably thinking about buying them. Why not someone post up some useful advice to where he can remove the reflectors from his USDM so he can save some money.

and they're 1 piece instead of a housing and a mounting bracket... which makes aiming the headlights MUCH more of a beotch. On the set I got I couldn't get the pattern to move at all...
