they're all the same, from 1999 to 2003.5
 
If I remember correctly the MSP has a pinkish tint in the reverse light region that the regular proteges do not have. Other than that they are the same.
 
^^ correct. The MSP has the pinkish tint on that center bar, while the MP3/ES/DX/LX is just clear there.

so it would be fine to use a regular protege tailight?
physically it will fit. the look is different though. it's a "feature" on the MSP that it has pink coloring over the reverse section. if you wanted to get 2 regular protege tails it'd be fine, if you had 1 regular 1 MSP tail the fit would be ok but they wouldn't match
 
This isn't the best picture, but you can see the difference.

They are noticeably different. It would really stick out if you had one of each on your ride.

Did you sell the light green sedan? I love the wheels on your p5 :)

Yup. Every penny from the sale went to mods for the other two lol! Thanks for the props on the wheels :)
