Since your drl bulbs are also the high beams, you'd have to run new bulbs or completely rewire extra lights somewhere.

heres a thread about changing the drl bulbs to LEDs http://www.odyclub.com/forums/54-2011-odyssey/253177-drl-led-upgrade-drl-warning-light.html

Honda models usually run for six years with a mid-model refresh, so the 2017 will have them.

If you are into doing something custom, I'd purchase the fog switch and wiring, then run some LED running light strip on your fog light covers (no fog lights, but LED strip on the fog light covers).

 

Yes, quite a few guys have converted all their outside running lights / brake / back up etc lights to LED. I used vleds.com to convert mine. Even have the turn signals (with the balast) but they were spendy.

 

I've also installed LEDs (switchbacks) in the turn signals with resistors. I flip on the parking lights and they run with the DRLs.

 

If you are willing to do some careful, detailed, work, this might be the way to go. I can vouch for the company. Used their excellent products in my old diesel pusher motorhome.

You can mod your own LED light bar. I modded some HID projectors into my Corolla and I loved the light output compared to stock. I could have modded some LED drl's as well but I just was too lazy to spend any more time than I already had on my project. I just transferred my DRL's from my lowbeams to my foglights with a harness design I saw on toyotanation.com. If you go to hidplanet.com, you might get some design advice and instructions on construction as well.

 

I agree with you. They should have it in the new Odyssey.

 

I got the Philip 8 LED DLR, and pulled the fuse for the stock DLR

Installation was simple enough. And I simply use 3M double sided automotive tapes and stick them to the air dam. They hasn't moved for close to 5 yr now. there are write ups on amazon review for our van as well.

I thought about changing the stock DLR (high beam) bulb to LED, but I don't want to lose the high beam because that's a passive safety feature in my opinion.

Simony,
I was looking at those BlingLights......how do you like them? (i.e. The quality and brightness). I'm leaning towards the Philips 8 right now. Do you have a Front End photo with them illuminated?

I disconnected the fuse, #27, for the high beam DRL’s. I then added Morimoto switchback front turn signals. With the parking lights on, they make fantastic DRL’s, and when I activate the turn signals, they are super bright amber. When they shut off, the DRL white LED’s come back on. I also changed the rear turn signals to LED bulbs. The fronts are 3457NA, and the rears are 7440(red). Note: it definitely is in your best interest to kill the halogen DRL’s, particularly if you run specialty 9005 bulbs, because the lower wattage the DRL circuit delivers will burn out your bulbs much faster than normal. Mine still worked, but the bulbs both had smoky residue inside. The LED change out does require you to manually turn on your parking lights, but I always run them anyway.
