USDM tail lights have side markers in them that light up. JDM tail lights don't have this side marker built into them.

You mean JDM EG9 tail lights and USDM EG8 tail lights? No side reflector. I'm not sure on the EG9, but on the EG6 lights, the reverse lens was smoked.

I don't see any smoke on my reverse lens on my EG6. Maybe someone picked up a used set that was smoked out. There shouldn't be a difference in the inners.

Really??? Because I got an EG6 right here in front of me and I don't see any smoke on them. If you can share some more info that would help. Maybe my inners were swapped out...I can take pics of EG6 and email it to anyone willing to post it if you want to see. Just don't know how to post pics here.

Yup, I had them side by side. The USDM ones are pinkish while the JDM ones are greyish.

IMO, no they are not worth. Those who don't know what to look for can't tell.
