Default jdm headlights and corners eg

is there any advantages of having jdm headlights and corners besides its "jdm", the city lighting thing is cool, but anybody can do it now so what would be the point of getting jdm headlights n corners..also i heard they use h4h bulbs..do they make HID's for thaat bulb size?

I don't really see the benefit of the JDM headlights other than the fact that they fit better than anyother headlight out there. I guess that it's lighter and it doesn't have the nipples like the US market headlights. I think it's more of a nuisance because you need to get H4h bulbs instead of the standard H4/9003 bulb.

Not many plus sides imo. Randomtask listed the plus sides.

You can make H4s fit.

The EDMs are actually really cool. All of the JDM features except they use a glass lense so they're clearer and give you that 'bling' factor. Still have city lights and use H4hs.

clean fitment (looks one piece) without nipples

made of plastic and lighter than USDM counterpart

does not mix glass headlamp and plastic corner to give it the unclean look.

beam pattern is a even blanket of light instead of 2 hotspots on the road.

OEM Honda part quality.




im talking out of my assssss.... its JDM...and i love it h:

I can count a lot more disadvantages then advantages in going to the JDM lights.

Pro:
1) They look neat.

Con:
1) No yellow corners.
2) City lights are pretty useless.
3) They cost money, when you already have a perfectly good set of lights.
4) They take a weird bulb not readily availible in the states.
5) They're plastic.
