^ I will second that. USDM tail lights are exactly the same as JDM,UKDM ,EDM etc. They are all the same.

Did you sell your car yet?

spin_r_g · 03-01-2009, 11:37 AM

I thought you were selling your car.

The tail-lights are the same, I'll give you that.

And SOME headlights are the same. There are JDM one piece headlights that were actually from Honda.

follow this diagram youngster. You will learn a lot. Make sure any headlights you get are STANLEY.

"JDM headlights are the exact same as USDM.....so dont waste your money"

So why am I getting showed this list? Am I not right in saying SOME are the same, and give an example why some aren't? Guess I'm a little slow..huh...

I disagree with everyone who says that USDM is the same as JDM headlights for the 4th gen prelude. The JDM is a one piece black, The USDM is a 2 piece chrome. Doesnt sound the same to me.

Thank you

That was a obviously a typo. He meant tail lights.

What do you mean SOME are the same? The real jdm one piece headlights offered by Honda manufactured by Stanley are offered in 2 colors chrome and black. Nothing else is JDM so saying some are they same is completely wrong. Any other one piece headlight is a replica or aftermarket and not JDM.

don't forget that there are EDM headlights too. They also vary from JDM and USDM. Follow the diagram I posted a few posts up.

here!

95greenlude · 03-02-2009, 11:27 AM

i Did mean taillights...typo on my part

bboixtc · 03-03-2009, 05:03 PM

You're all wrong. The difference between JDM and USDM tail lights, is that JDM tail lights have been used and touched by Japanese people, that makes them cost 20% more than USDM tails.

spin_r_g · 03-03-2009, 05:05 PM

I'll trade you my jdm tail lights for your usdm tail lights plus cash.

JDM tails have a much brighter turn signal. You should jump all over spin_r_g's offer.
