Those are the JDM versions (Japanese Domestic Market), There is an extra bulb and some other minor differences.

still cant notice

I just did a search to see if I found diff looking lights and all the pics look the same.

Do you know of any sights that show the two versions.


BTW DO NOIT BID ON THE ONES GOING FOR $127 at the time, That me as the highest bidder.

I mean, THEY DONT WORK DONT GET THEM

Those are the only ones that come with the center plate, but I dotn think any one else noticed. That guy has like 4 of them on there.


Any ways, I just wanted to see a pic of both versions. To me it makes no difference. It seem like Every one selling import things adds "J-SPEC" to try to sell faster, lol

those look the same to me, I think they are *special* since they are the rarer 89-91 lights that everyone wants and not the 86-88 ones...

Those are also the Australian spec lights - our number plates are bigger.......I have J-spec lights and i had to literally jam my number plate in there to make it fit.....most people just cut them.

BTW - you can just cut your series 4 centre piece with a hacksaw to make it fit - it isn't hard.
