i dont mean to sound like a newb but i was just wondering.

i thought that all usdm civics were made in canada

are acura integras made in canada?

or what?

so the headlights are usdm? im pretty sure they are plastic and i know the ctr headlights are glass.

so.... if they were jdm would they be glass?

i am going to go out on a limb here, and say that if you have OEM tail lights, they are going to say "japan" on them, also.

so you're asking if your headlights are supposed to say USA or AMERICA or something like that?

either way, it's not like you're gonna go around saying you have JDM headlights are you?

All Integras were built in Japan and exported to all other countries in the world. Since the car was made there, the headlights and taillights were also made there by Koito, and as a result are going to say Made in Japan on them.

JDM Hondas did not have glass headlight lenses. USDM 5th gen Civics had glass lenses, while JDM 5th gen Civics had plastic lenses.

USDM 2nd gen Integras had glass headlights, while JDM 2nd gen Integras had plastic 1-piece headlights.

All 6th gen Civics and all 3rd gen Integras for all markets all had plastic headlight lenses.

That should about sum it up for this thread. Thank you and move along.
