I do see the sticky, but iam not sure what these are called. does anyone know a good place to order a set of these taillights? iam in love with them. it looks like one of those old EP3 Type R taillights.

 

They're the JDM tail lights, factory/OEM. Forget which model Fit though.

And I agree they look awesome. Especially from that angle

 

wow. iam actually a mustang guy that recently changed to honda.. the JDM stuff over in Japan looks freaken more USDM then the Fits they are selling here in the US.

i must obtain these taillights..

 

lmfao, the owner of that car has a mustang as well.

PM ghettoboy247. he'll sell what you see on that picture to you.

but if you have a way to get it through Honda,
1) Right STD light assy, P/N 33500-TFO-003
2) Left STD light assy, P/N 33550-TFO-003

 

i can't beleive you remember me! haha my mustang is so much better:
Supercharged and Intercooled 02 Black GT Coupe - Corral Forums

but yeah.. i think i might have it sold. so i should be getting a fit this weekend.. iam crossing my fingers

EDIT: i just got off the phone. my car just sold.. dude is picking it up tomorrow.. so i guess i'll start going to the dealerships the next day after that..

 

Will those work on a USDM Fit without any modication? (i.e. Plug-n-play)

 

we could trade if your interested vash , i could send my tail light to you first , guranteed fresh . but pls send yours right away upon getting my lights

 

Those are the stock tail lights over here in the Philippines, on all models.

 

i would like to know too =]

 

Same in Oz. I think they are stock on all Thai made models. They probably don't comply with some rule in the US re tail light/indicator/brake lamp size/placement/colour, hence different design for USDM.

At one point there was a swap thing going for USDM people wanting the Thai /JDM ones and vise versa.

 

dumb question, but is the Fit RS the East/SE Asian version of the Fit Sport? I don't remember seeing any in Bangkok, but maybe I didn't look so hard.

 

yup type100 your right there are stock here in philippines ....

hondabritt----there will be no modification just bolt on .....

very cheap deals youll only spend i think $64 or $70 dollars for shipping .

 

I'm pretty sure Fit RS is JDM only.

 

Technically the Fit RS is just the JDM GE8.

Japan and other countries around the world also get the GE6, fitted with the 1.3L L13A VTEC engine with 100HP at the crank.

 

I think the reason behind the redesign for the USDM Fit tails was due to the requirement to have a rear facing red reflector and an outward facing red reflector incorporated into the light.

Doesn't look like the ones in the photo incorporate any reflector.

 

There must be one in there somewhere. I'm pretty sure we have a similar requirement. Is it still legal in the US to use a flashing brake light for a turn signal, rather than a separate amber one?

 

We need someone to take night time videos of each type of brake light in action

 

It's on the base jdm model. We call them jdm base tails. Yes they are plug and play if they are complete. There was an exchange program going on little bit ago. $ I saw was 230usd. Look at the exhaust clips of ghettoboy's tanabe med exhaust and see them being used.

and as far as I know, the Fit RS is lame due the fact that it is a sport with a mugen kit, with zero upgrades.

 

I was going through a lot of the tail light laws the other night. As long as its a separate bulb from the brake lights the blinker for the rear of the vehicle can be red or amber and anything in between. The front can be white or amber and anything in between. (I think)

As for the reflector requirement, I know we have both in the USDM tail lights but I haven't gotten to look closely at any JDM base tails. I know someone can enlighten us.

 

They have these tails for sale on A&J Racing's site. Says it's a direct replacement with no modifications needed:
