there is only one type of USDM taillight for the 09 fits, there are different JDM ones available tho, the RS JDM fit has LED tails and the base model JDM fit has a different look to it also, non LED tho.

09 Taillights

From All of the info that I can dig up, the JDM tails don't fit on the US models. but they make JDM copies that will fit the 09 FIT"s . These are them on my car. They take some rewiring and some adjusting to get them to fit. the Brake lights are LED and are on top now and the turns are on bottom and backups in the middle. I like the new look it make the FIT look more expensive and not so cheap. the stock ones look cheap to me. But i love my car.




The ones I custom Painted are for sale, if your looking for a diff LOOk.
$85.00

Really? I think a lot of members here, including myself, have OEM JDM tails that fit perfectly on the US model. Where did you get your information from?

well back in January when i bought the car I tryed finding projector head lights and LED JDM Tails. the few places i tried told me that it would not work on my US FIT case of some differences with the JDM FIT and THe US Fit. I just gave up for a while and found the JDM smokes that i got. they are still telling me the head lights wount work, but they did tell me that about the tails so maybe they are wrong.

Your information is completely wrong, I along with a lot of other people have genuine OEM JDM tails on our USDM fits. Nothing from the jdm front end will fit our cars...

yep the tails fit fine. Once again thanks to our friends in Indonesia (MK Donz) we all have much better taillights now.
