The 92-94 US corner lights don't have reflectors on the side. That light actually looks to me to be exactly the same as the corner lamp on my car.

Hmm, one of us could just ask him for the part number to find out whether or not it's different from the US-spec lights...

Wow, this may be setting a record (replying to my own post twice), but...

We already know this guy! 93LegacyTurbo, this is your auction, no? You had advertised your car on here a little while ago:

i recently took mine off to wire the side repeaters and with the bulb removed it is indeed all clear. Im sure the jdm spec is the same, unless it has a different beam pattern, and i think the beam pattern on the us spec ones are pretty good, i can see the orange light flashing on the ground a ways from the car at night.

The orange bulb does reflect quite a bit inside the lens which is why it prolly looks so orange in the pic

Yeah, a flashbulb on a camera can really bring out the color of the bulb reflecting around in there, even if it doesn't look that colored under natural light.
