Sorry for the Off-topic post, but I can't seem to find any new JDM tail lights for my R!!! Do any of you guys know where I can get some..?

 

I can get it for you, $200 and it'll take 3 months.

Oh, that's $200 per.

 

d00d, how many times do the vendors on this board have to tell you that they can get them!? It is going to cost you an arm and a leg no matter who you buy it from, so just pick up the damn phone and order them already!

 

No joke. Just listen to Bob and his wise man advice.

 

Bob, I've already talked to several of the guys on this board, and everyone is telling me they either can't get them or they are on like 3-4 month backorder! I was only curious as to if anybody had them for sale NOW.

 

I got some for sale. They have JDM written all over them...literally.

 

You post *****...!

 

im me

 

Whats the difference between JDM and USDM teg tails?

 

Okay sorry...didn't know about the back order. But if you had ordered them like six months ago when you first started posting "JDM Tails for sale?!" threads, they would probably be on your car already...

 

I have my original OEM tail lights from my JDM Integra Si, so if someone posts a picture of the JDM lights this post is referring to then i'll know if mine are the same, theyre lying in my garage gathering dust!

ok sorry mine are 94-97 JDM which are the same as 94-97 USDM

 

Yeah I know... damn it!!! on me!

 

thanx j's racing

 

Those look like 94-97 JDM tail lights.... I want some 98-01, the candy red color with amber corners...

 

acutally the tails are the same as the 97-below spec. When I was in Japan I checked. Plus a friend owns a dealership in Japan and he sent a set to a friend of mine here. I compaired them to a 97-below US spec and they are the same. And yes the tails he got for me were brand new ones. And the part number for tail lights in japan are all the same so their can't be a difference in the 98+spec onces.
Here's some info on the tails.
The whole red lens is one huge piece of red plastic. The reason the brake area is bright red is because it has a silver backing to it to reflect the light emited from the bulb. Next the reason the outer red plastic is so dark is because its backed with black plastic (the whole housing which is black).
So to some it all up the US 07-below tail lights (with amber in the blinker area) are the EXACT SAME AS THE TAIL LIGHTS ON THE JDM SPEC type R's.

Or for page number ref. on the HyperRev vol. 27 look at the cover for the mag. See the 97-below spec R? Ok thats one. Now turn to page 23 which is the article on the new 98 spec R. See the rear? Ok proven. its a bad picture but look at the corner of the tail light where the little side marker in the tail light goes. See how dark the red is.

I have a set of the tails with the yellow blinkers here which I'm holding for a friend until he figures out if he wants them or to sell them.

Mike I am inclined to believe you, but I have seen several pics which contradict your conclusions...

 

look in the HyperRev mags or just ask any JDM guy who has a JDM R here to take a pict. Plus their was a 98+spec JDM R at the last car show which also proved what I say.

 

very interresting..... soo usdm 1997 and below are the exact same as 2000-2001 jdm itrs?

 

here's the break down:
JDM 96-01spec R's = the 97-below US tail lights.
The US 98+ spec tail lights are not JDM style ones due to our red blinker area.

 

But the JDM 98+ tail lights are all light red like our 98+ tails except the JDM ones have the amber turn signal...

 

no they arn't. Trust me. I checked several JDM R's when I was in Japan, plus I checked the JDM part book from my friends dealership their and the part number is the same for all year DC2 JDM integra's.
