Default JDM S2000 Chrome Housing headlights?

Is there any such thing? I'm new to the s2k scene and would like to know if these are custom made or actual JDM headlights?

Thanks in advance!

They are actual JDM headlights, I believe they came in 02-03 in EU and Japan markets.

Not a huge fan personally but they do exist yes. The s2k is one of the few cars that have literally perfect headlights from the factory.. Wouldn't even think of replacing even with JDM counterparts.

Are these headlights applicable to ap2s with no modifications?

I wanna say its plug and play but theres an issue with the direction the beam points due to RHD vs LHD. There's a few threads regarding them if you search around.

These have side lights and reflectors? Compare the pictures to your '06 headlights to see what I mean. There may be statutory issues with these lights.

As others have mentioned they are indeed factory headlights offered in European and Japanese s2k's on 2002-03 models. To use them in an ap2, you'll need ap1 ballasts and either JDM turn signal bulb sockets or modify your USDM one's to fit into JDM housings. They are slightly different.

Here's mine,
