What is the difference between a JDN taillight v's the USDM one? Again just like the amber corner lights there are too many companies who make them. I don't see a difference unless JDM lights are super rare and mistaken with USDM lights.

^this.


the usdm have an extra reflector in the outers that the JDM don't have. people will say that the reverse lights are tinted on the JDM inners but this is NOT true.

^ trust me. they're not


I have a set of "smoked" JDM inners.. they're EXACTLY the same as USDM. it's not like the USDM are bright white, they both look slightly tinted.

no no i know. but check out JDMLand.com . they mention and show the real SiR Eg taillights are like our but like mentioned above no outter reflector.

The EDM set with the inner left side of the trunk fog light have the smoked reverse lenses. The smoked are definataly EDm not JDM at all. EDM requiring the rear fog by standards out that way..

The Ebay 50/50 red and whites are called 'JDM' because some 10 year old in Japan made them :)
