The OEM HID ITR lights look just like the S2000 projector HID's, except the cutoff pattern is backwards, since it is made for RHD.

Yeah... MTK Kommander (HID guru on this board... that is if you didn't already know that) told me that he believes that the s2k and the jdm type r hid's are the same...

And to clarify that... the beam of light from all USDM HID's are slanted upwards to the right so it doesn't blind on-coming traffic and it lights up the signs on the freeways and such.... but like ^ he said, in Japan they drive on the right side of the road so it is slanted to the left... There was actually a person in the appearance forum that had really good pictures to describe this...
