so to have a look on the subject I made this comparison.

1992 Legacy BC USDM (JDM too I think) right taillight:

1992 Legacy BC EDM (also ADM Liberty) right taillight:

My car 1993 Legacy BC with EDM taillights and USDM taillight panel on the deck lid.

no, I understood you fine, I don't think you need the USDM outside taillight pieces, the EDM ones look great.

I don't think so. The usdm ones match the center better. and I got too many bulbs now :lol:

I can see how the USDM corners will line up better with the lighter red section, but I think your car also looks good for now, so no real rush to get the corners. I'm sure its a mod that most won't notice, which are always the fun ones to do.

OK but I have just bought a pair and have some plans to switch them to LED. They have potential to receive some LED panels inside 8) and look clean, much cleaner than any EDM.

The inside lights work with LED bulbs, the outside not yet.
