Default ? on jdm style fog lights

Is there a difference in like the jdmshit, password jdm, and ebay jdm style fog lights? I have been looking at them , and they all come with the same stuff and look at the same. Am i missing something? Thanks a lot!

I dont know if this belongs in the A/C forum...but oh well I'll help you out.

The main difference is that some are the real jdm fog lights opposed to the fake ones. I know that Password JDM sells both of them. I would STRONGLY reccomend staying off ebay just becasue you could get jipped, as well as JDM **** because I have heard nothing but bad things from them. Fakes are not as expensive as the real jdm fogs, and usually dont fit as well. Finally, I think fake ones sometimes come with black housings instead of the gunmetal ones...don't quote me on that one.
Either way, if you can afford the real ones...do it. If not, you will get what you pay for when you buy the fakes.

I can afford the real ones, but there's no reason to spend more than i have to.

I can understand that. Im pretty sure those 3 places sell pretty much the same deal, but I would definitely say getting them from Password JDM because their customer service and quality are excellent.

fakes are fine, but if you are buying them for lighting quality, go oem, and as previously mentioned, you get what you pay for...the fakes get condensation, fast.

I bought mine on EBAY. Have had them on my car for 2 years and the only thing Ive had to do with them was replace bulbs. (drive with them on all the time)

As far as beam pattern goes, they're almost identical. Basically taken from the Raybrig mold and just put under a different name.

the the aftermarket ones come form the same where house

password jdm pretends that theyb have the best aftermarket ones, but its the same deal. i remember when the manufacture stopped painting the bezels and password claim that its was a defect, lol (same dealio wit the smoked amber sidemarkers)
i know this cuz i know ppl who does wholesale

okay so let me brake does the diff ones ive seen (ive owned 2 out of 3 the manufature i know of)

oem honda 220-300
depo 90-120
rct 60-80 (i think it was that i unno i threw away the box. these are ones i currently have now)

depo is well know for aftermarkets and those were go to me i had the clear one but i decided to change up form clear to yellow i think jdmcarboy.com has em the cheapest for like 90 or 99 i dont remember( irecommend him when i used to live in la, he was my main parts guy)

RTC (sp?) is the ebay brand, these ARE actaully different from the oem style ones in such they offer diff colors like ion blue(which i currently have) and titanium fog also the bezel is different and more agreesive
heres the company i bought it from 75$ i think

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW

* note i did pickup service so i dont know how relaive there shipping is but they lloked like a inshape company when i visited teh wherehouse

jesus I am not reading everybodys post so if I repeat sorry?


*** If you want to have a perfect FIT get the JDM ones from PWJDM. ***

but if you just want to spend less cash, and taking your time to put it in, buy some fake ones...
