I tried to search for more information between the JDM and USDM headlights. Is there anything different between the two? I am more worried about fitment/ angle of lights. Any information would be great.

This is the cutoff for the projectors. It directs the bulk of the light upwards into oncoming traffic in LHD traffic, where it would illuminate the road and ditches in RHD roads. Aiming the lights lower won't help either, that just gives you less usable light to drive with. I've heard people say they had projectors and standard halogen bulbs and never got flashed, but HID's are too bright and need the cutoff mod done.
