You seem to be slightly retarded because the Accord from 94-95 had a single taillight, this was changed in 96-97 because there was a model redesign which incorporated a larger trunk opening and the taillights were changed in order to offset the visual aspect of it.

Grow up already fuckwad...yeah I called you a fuckwad because you act like you are king shit and do nothing to add to any conversation except find a way to slam on people.

yea no offense but he wasnt asking about 94-95 tailights, he was asking why a say 96 civic two door has different taillights than a 96 civic 4 door. but i do agree kind of a dick first response even if it is the basement

usually on two vs four door same year models of a vehicle there are numerous differences, body length can be different, and usually the trunk lid is different as well as other physical components of the rear half of the vehicle. you are taking a small car and throwing two extra doors on it, theres going to be design changes in the latter half to allow the addition of these doors.
