Last week I received my OEM JDM smoked tail lights from
Pole Position Products that I had purchased during their group buy. I got mine a little late, but it was very well worth the wait.
Like everyone who has installed these, you do need to make some minor modifications. I had to lengthen two sets of wires on the passenger side and one set on the drivers side.
The turn signal bulb fits with ease. However, the reverse light bulb socket does not fit perfectly. It can be stuck into the hole, but will sit there at an angle due to the legs not matching up with the holes. It does still sit in there though. I'm not sure yet what I will do about that though.
Here are some photos I took.

LED board inside tail lights on the left. Tail lights on the right do not have the board installed.
The LED board is screwed in using screws with a square head drive. Square head meaning that I could not use a Phillips head or flat head. The head to drive the screw in was a square. My friend had a spare Phillips head screw driver so we sanded it down until we got a square and used that.
The plug from the brake lights plugs into the back of this cover.
Some wires that were cut to extend them on the passenger side.

Interior shot of my Honda leather steering wheel cover and the Mugen door sills. I had to stitch the steering wheel cover myself. The fit is not perfect, but I think it looks ok.
Here is a close-up shot of the stitching where it does not fit perfectly. This is due to the fact that the cover was made for the base model which does not have an ergonomic steering wheel.

Upcoming mods: JDM hazard button and JDM center console.
