Exclamation csx and fd1 have DIFFERENT lights.

Had some people considering the usdm>jdm conversion wondering if they can purchase the csx lights for cheap from canada instead of paying more for the "jdm" ones...the answer is..

yes, they do fit...but they dont look alike..

for the headlights, csx got those amber colored corners, against clear ones in the jdm/fd1 ones..



taillights in the csx has a red partition on the side, the jdm/fd1 got them in all white..

In the end, its just a personal preference, just wanted to clear things up, I hope this is going to help people who are interested in this conversion..

K.C.
the FD1 also has chrome trim around the lights as opposed to the silver paint on the CSX.

Jst set it up like this Acura CSX lights are better than FD1 because

Acura > Honda when it comes to Luxury and by quality but same engine except that the fact Acura has higher ones.
