They're the JDM tail lights, factory/OEM. Forget which model Fit though.
And I agree they look awesome. Especially from that angle
wow. iam actually a mustang guy that recently changed to honda.. the JDM stuff over in Japan looks freaken more USDM then the Fits they are selling here in the US.
but yeah.. i think i might have it sold. so i should be getting a fit this weekend.. iam crossing my fingers
EDIT: i just got off the phone. my car just sold.. dude is picking it up tomorrow.. so i guess i'll start going to the dealerships the next day after that..
we could trade if your interested vash , i could send my tail light to you first , guranteed fresh . but pls send yours right away upon getting my lights
Those are the stock tail lights over here in the Philippines, on all models.
Same in Oz. I think they are stock on all Thai made models. They probably don't comply with some rule in the US re tail light/indicator/brake lamp size/placement/colour, hence different design for USDM.
At one point there was a swap thing going for USDM people wanting the Thai /JDM ones and vise versa.
I think the reason behind the redesign for the USDM Fit tails was due to the requirement to have a rear facing red reflector and an outward facing red reflector incorporated into the light.
Doesn't look like the ones in the photo incorporate any reflector.
There must be one in there somewhere. I'm pretty sure we have a similar requirement. Is it still legal in the US to use a flashing brake light for a turn signal, rather than a separate amber one?
It's on the base jdm model. We call them jdm base tails. Yes they are plug and play if they are complete. There was an exchange program going on little bit ago. $ I saw was 230usd. Look at the exhaust clips of ghettoboy's tanabe med exhaust and see them being used.
and as far as I know, the Fit RS is lame due the fact that it is a sport with a mugen kit, with zero upgrades.

I was going through a lot of the tail light laws the other night. As long as its a separate bulb from the brake lights the blinker for the rear of the vehicle can be red or amber and anything in between. The front can be white or amber and anything in between. (I think)
As for the reflector requirement, I know we have both in the USDM tail lights but I haven't gotten to look closely at any JDM base tails. I know someone can enlighten us.
