when i replaced my original tails with the ST202s yesterday i was puzzled to see that the USDM have an extra bulb holder for a 194 that acts as a rear side marker lamp. the JDMs do not have a receptacle for that lamp. did you cut and tape yours off or did you just take out the bulb? while on the subject...is there cause for concern if there is no rear side marker now? i had a quick glimps of the rear of the car in a storefront reflection this morning and i guess i could see the outside tail/brake light. i guess they just do things differently over there in the Orient.

It should only take about 10mins each to do. Pull them back out and look on the sidemarker rear housing - you'll see. correct. I think negative was the first to do this way back IIRC. US and CA cars require a rear side marker. The non JDM taillight has it and the JDMs do not.

The rear fog is completely different. the bottom line is that each US tail have one extra bulb (rear sidemarkers) than the JDM tails. -------------------- |
