Rick doesn't sell USDM clear/smoked sidemarkers. There is no such thing. He sells a JDM version and a version they manufacture themselves (from the Middle East somewhere I think, according to Stratocaster).

To answer your question, the JDM sidemarkers fit perfectly. They are genuine Honda parts.

Absolutely gorgeous pic.

Do you have a full size version? I'd like to consider it for inclusion in the Muz v2.0 Screensaver with your permission.

Thanks, Muz. I'm working on getting the fullsized version right now.

Kyle Johnson took that pic - he used a D70 if you're interested.

i think there is some misunderstanding. I got the rick's clear side markers already on my car, and now looking for to change the headlight diffuser which is the yellow part of the headlight to either clear or smoked color. But rick sells 2 version, one is jdm and one is usdm, both has clear and smoked color, i like the smoked color more, but any opinion or suggestion or maybe pics would be better? thanks.

Silly me. I just re-read your post and realise I have misinterpeted it.
You are indeed correct about the diffusers.

I think they both look fine. The smoked really suits the Sebring car in lig's post very well (I love it) but would be too much on a Berlina or Spa IMO.

does anyone knows who could clear my stock headlight professionally in the bay area close to san francisco? because i dont want to do it myself and mess it up and it could be soaking water. I would pay for the job, but just let me know how much, thanks.
