I don't think there's a difference either.

Silver ring around them is for 02 lights

And i believe the 3 light ones are prototypes that never went into production

Doc's right. The only difference between JDM and USDM lights are in their '02s, which have a silver ring around the the brake and turn/reverse light clusters.

The triple clustered rear lights were for a pre-production S2000.

Hi All:

There IS a significant difference between USA and EUR/JAP/AUS spec lamps!!

On USDM tail lamps, there is a red reflector on the outer side, with a side marker lamp behind it. This is for all '00, '01 and '02 ('02 with the additional silver rings around the bezels) lamps.

In EUR/JAP/AUS the reflector is 'fake' and there is no lightsource on the side of the car/lamp.

Regards,


Siepel
