I tried to see how much it cost and I couldn’t even understand anything because it’s in Japanese

it was roughly in the $1400-1500 before shipping and brokerage fee.
They are sold already as someone on a CT200h Facebook group purchased it it when i pointed them to them initially.

Hopefully it's like the 14+ facelift, bumper components and bumper, just + the headlights.

The parts are going to be expensive af and expensive af to ship, since they won't be selling the 2018+ here or Canada.


The tails are pretty sick, hopefully they're plug and play. The bumper...BLEH

RHD headlights have the wrong (opposite) beam pattern for LHD roads. They should not be used in the US, nor are they legal.

The OP specifically mentioned JDM headlights, from Yahoo Japan Auction. That means RHD. Yes, if you can get a set of LHD headlights and wire them properly, it would be awesome.

I have also imported these lights from Japan and can tell you that seller is a big liar!
He is selling them because they are NOT I repeat NOT plug and plug!! And he probably can't make them work!

Even if you have LED headlights you still have to make a harness for it otherwise they won't work at all,
also there is a module that needs to be replaced for a newer version otherwise you won't be able to use the lights.

I am still in the process of making this retrofit work but close in finishing it,
very busy lately but when I have the retrofit complete I will report back with the result!

But for anyone looking to buy those lights don't believe that seller it's all bull****,
I have also told him that what he is claiming is not true but doesn't respond to my messages which says enough.
