Alright, to put it simply I've got a lightbulb that needs replacing. But I'm not sure what to refer to it as, I believe it's the "daytime running" light on the driver side. Maybe parking light? In the headlight assembly, it's the only orange triangular section. They only come on when you turn on the headlights. I have searched here and there for a solution but haven't found anything on it, so I figured I'd ask the club what they think it is. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Technically, the day time running lights are the ones that are ON even when the headlights are OFF. :)

I think its called the marker light but I have no idea what its really called. Lets see if the collective knowledge of the forum comes through.
 
OK so the arrow in your picture is pointing to the reflector, that has no light bulb. On TOP of that is the parking lights, they turn on when you put the headlight switch to the first position and stays on when you turn on the headlights. The parking light also stays on when you turn on the high beams. The high beams and DRLs is the smaller "reflector/housing" (closer to the radiator) while the big "reflector/housing" is the low beams. The turn signal is located at the bottom of the headlight and only turns on when you signal or when you have the hazard lights on.

2005-2007 odysseys DO NOT have DRLs or the amber parking light, it has the clear parking light housing with a orange bulb.
2008-2010 odysseys DO have DRLs and they have the amber parking light housing and uses a regular bulb.

DRLs stay on when the car is on (also when the key is in the second position) AND when you have the parking lights on. Once you switch the headlights on, they shut off immediately.

Hopefully you understood my explanation lol. Its hard explaining things with text.

MrRangerZr1, sorry for the bad aim but I was definitely talking about the amber light right above the reflectors. But THANKS, cause you and OdyMember helped me finally figure out what bulb to get. It was indeed the 194NA bulb and I just picked up a pack of two from Autozone and replaced them both. Thanks again for helping on such a little task like this. That problem was really bugging me.
