I think that the JDM require some cutting they don't fit like the regular clear, euro and the OEM

you have to cut a little bit of plastic from where the corners screw to your headlights. The jdm ones, in addition, only use one light as a constant / blinker (just use one bulb from usdm wiring and leave one).
