which means you would still have to swap out the projectors for the correct cutoff.
As for adding in hids, you won't have the stock leveling motors or switch, that is if you want/need em. but they are kinda cool.

but then if you get the real jdm lights you will have the jdm cutoff.

Yes, the JDM headlights do not plug and play. For it to be factory you need the USDM hid headlights, headlight harness, fuse box, fog and leveler switches, wiring diagram and time. You could just buy a HID kit for your stock projectors slap them on in 30 min. and call it a day but no fogs. For JDM's, wire up your own plug and play harness for the hid and fogs (the RHD beam pattern is not a big issue to most). The leveler motors can just be left unpluged. Easy stuff. Oh, and SEARCH. There are quite a few threads that have more details on this topic. Good luck.
