Look like OEM cleared headlights...

Save your money and clear your OEMs yourself.

btw, I thought JDM = Blacked out w/Orange reflector?

Saying that they are "JDM" helps them sell.

yea all the "JDM" i've seen has black involved.. looks similar to painting the borders and clearing them or leaving the amber piece on top and black borders..

cant do that sir cuz thats my car. but ya those are the real jdm headlights. the ones ur talking about are for the ek chassis. except that no jdm headlights for any civic 89-2005 have reflectors nor are they balcked out. just chrome or black chrome. the "blacked out style" is like a fake copy cat jdm ek style headlight. plus i like these better...brighter chrome and no reflectors at all in any of the corners gives it a cleaner look i say. but anywho just letting u guys know they are out there for sale.

JDM head lights are cleared with a yellow amber like its shown in the that pic.

people think JDM headlights are painted black. but for our cars this is not true. other models this is ture.

yes it would be cheaper to clear your headlights and put in a yellow amber.

the amber on the corner is just due to the bulb i placed in there. originally they come from honda all clear without any reflectors at all even in the bottom corner. but ya honda never made any black housing headlights to my knowledge...the only thing close would be the 96-2000 ek9(type r) not ek4(sir), which came with a black chrome housing no reflector and "city/courtesy light". similair to that of the dc2 type R not the dc2 sir or sir-g which just came with chrome.

or going the wannabe jdm way and "blacking out" my headlights. IMO...oh btw...its cleared reflectors, brighter chrome. and no headlight shroud and the right to say they are the real thing. but eh my fault should have known not too many 7thgen owners are into real oem jdm ****. but whatever it was worth a try right

they are JDM, our cars as somebody else stated are just clear in japan with no lense. Waste of money when you basically have those on your car already. Just take out the lens from your other, and it is the EXACT same thing. You can call it USJDM! start a new fad.

who said it?
"Just becuase its painted black, its not JDM". we should modify this to:
"Just becuase its painted black or cleared, its not JDM".
