I've been shopping used parts to help out the guy fixing my '97 GT after a fender bender (driver's front corner).
I'm considering a JDM headlamp and highbeam via eBay from a seller in Japan. Are these the same parts as used in the US? I'm not adding or customizing, just trying to pay far less than dealer prices. I know some countries have/had different lighting laws. And there aren't any of these in wrecking yards (oh yeah, now they are auto dismanters/recyclers!). Recommnedations? TIA |

in headlamps the jdm is RHD meaning it might not be pointing in the direction you country laws require...
there are some variations in fenders, and little stuff too as well. but there are some stickies here to fix the headlight.. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...
