Default quick question about the 5th gen "JDM" headlights

Did the blacked out headlights for the 5th gens only come on the SiRs?

I see those popping up all the time, which look like USDM headlights with clear corners.

thanks.

The ones I bought for mine were from hong kong ebay seller keithtau.
They were black with black corners also.

These don't really look like the ones I had. But the corners only have one bulb which is the way JDM corners are instead of the two bulb usdm setup. Shipping seams kind of high for stateside but that is ebay. If you could get them for under 50.00 or so they may be worth it.
Plus I paid nearly 400.00 w/shipping to get mine and shipping was only 45.00.
Hope this helps.

SiR black housings, and the corner was black housing as well...

seller is blatently saying its not an SiR light...its an EX/LX wagon CE1..same F22b as in the US. they simply appear to be US style headlights with OEM style clear corners...even though they are made by stanley, its not different that USDM

the only difference between those and the usdm lamps is that the jdm ones don't have the nipples protruding from the outer clear lens...they are also aimed slightly different as well, but it's hardly noticeable...
