Technically, I guess those are JDM.

But they're also the exact same ones you already have in your car.

Take yours off, take the little clips off, stick them in the oven at 200 degrees for 3 minutes, pull them apart, and take out the amber lens. Put them back together, and bingo. Same exact thing, but free.

TITLE: Brand New 01-03 Honda Civic 2/4Dr JDM Crystal Headlights - Chrome

DESCRIPTION: Coolest Design ever, new Euro Diamond Headlights which benefit more light coming out from the headlight, it also has further and wider light beam pattern.

Besides, there have been JDM ****** on here who ordered the stock headlights from Honda of Japan, and THOSE (the only real difference) is that the JDM ones don't have that little 'bulb shield' inside the headlight...(and the fact that the beam cut-off is slightly different for the RHD.)

so, for true JDM headlights, look for no 'bulb shield'...i believe...

Re: Anybody have these? Need Opinions

those on ebay are total fakes. and the beam is terrible. and in the pic, one is for coupe and the other for sedan? lol. if you decide to buy the real jdm lights for $350 then you will blind everyone on the road because the cutoff is switched around for RHD.

Re: Anybody have these? Need Opinions

Yeah my headlights are hazed and look like ****, I guess the AZ sun has a tendency to do that. I want to replace them because I am yet to find a good plastic polisher that works with long lasting results. I was looking on ebay because I don't want to spend the money for new oem ones. If anybody has a better suggestion, I am all ears. Thanks

Re: Anybody have these? Need Opinions

I got into an accident awhile back and i made the mistake of only replacing one light, so i had one new light and one slightly yellow light. I have ocd, that ***** not gonna fly. I went down to my body shop and just got a one aftermarket headlight for $100. Same thing as OEM but cheaper
