hmm nope. all of mine say honda. maybe you have aftermarket headlights? did you get your car used? it was probably in a front end accident if it was used (or the person bought replacement headlights)

i think the shop you went to replaced the headlight with an aftermarket one made by TYC. look inside the headlight at the large reflective piece. compare them. one will probably be more ridged (? more lines).

my driver side one has a honda written on it but my passenger side has a TYC headlight
so if you can read Honda on ur headlight you will never find TYC, these are jobber parts.

I got only one cuz I got involved in an accident and had to replace only one but if you have never replaced them they will be HONDA oem not TYC.

But would it be possible that honda headlights were all made by TYC? (I mean for oe)
