#661 of 902 Re: Running Boards [fx35awd] by cwalti Oct 19, 2006 (10:41 am)
Replying to: fx35awd (Oct 19, 2006 7:26 am) I too have an Ody and never felt the need for running boards. The floor pan is so low that any kid will hit his/her shin while getting in. You would be scraping over speed bumps as well. As far as roof access goes, I open the sliding door and stand on the floor for front access, and for rear roof access I close the door and stand on the rear tire, (while it is mounted on the rear axle, of course )
#662 of 902 Daytime running lights for '05 Oddy. by iamzzyzx Oct 20, 2006 (7:51 pm)
I noticed in the '05 Odyssey Owners Manual on page 379, the chart related to the diagram shows that fuse #3 is for the daytime running lights...but only for the Canadian models. I noticed that I don't have a fuse in the #3 spot. If I was to put a fuse in w/the correct amperage, would that give me daytime running lights? Replies to this message: cwalti (Oct 20, 2006 11:33 pm)

Replying to: iamzzyzx (Oct 20, 2006 7:51 pm) NO!   Daytime running lights are just 'markers' with less output than your low beams and they do not engage the rear lights. Simply, turn on your low beams and -- voila!!! -- you got yourself some day time running lights...
#664 of 902 LED tail lights. by iamzzyzx Oct 21, 2006 (7:49 am)
I've been up and down "google" and the net lookin' for any aftermarket LED tail lights for my '05 Oddy. Anyone heard if there are any in the works. BTW...I'm not talkin' about the LED bulbs, they don't illuminate the majority of the tail light assembly itself. Drives me nuts 'cuz I see the aftermarket ones on Scion Xb's and yes, I realize the Xb's are highly customizable, unlike a family van in the 30+ K range.

Replying to: deliciousbass (Sep 12, 2006 3:32 pm) www.mats.com   Have used them on all of my vehicles since 1996. Great fit aand easy, no drill installation.   You will be very happy Replies to this message: fx35awd (Nov 09, 2006 8:15 am)

Replying to: cableguy06 (Nov 09, 2006 6:52 am) Yup, I have to agree with you on this because I have purchased two from them, one for the Pilot and the recent one was for the Odyssey. Personally, I think the design from www.mats.com looks much much better than the one from the Honda Manufacturer or the OEM(I think). Also, the price is cheaper at www.mats.com of course.
#667 of 902 Yakima Buttondown 4 Ski Rack by svaughan Nov 19, 2006 (5:53 pm)
I just got the Honda cross bars for my 2005 Odyssey and want to be able to mount my Yakima ski rack to the bars. The mighty mounts that I used for my Toyota 4 Runner are not large enough for the Honda bars. Has anyone tried to mount a Yakima ski rack onto the Honda cross bars? What did you use to do this?
#668 of 902 Re: Hitch Mount Bike Rack [fibber2] by mtbhead Dec 20, 2006 (12:06 am)
Replying to: fibber2 (Oct 13, 2006 6:21 pm) I'm a bike nut, and have owned many racks over the years (from crappy strap-on ones, to roof racks, to several different hitch racks). I currently own a Thule 916 T2: http://www.thuleracks.com/thule/product.asp?dept_id=8&sku=916   Yakima's Hookup 2" is almost identical, but with one very important (in my opinion) difference: while it can fold UP when not in use, it can't be tilted DOWN to allow for access to the rear hatch. The Thule does both. Both of these are modified versions of a rack no longer made by Sportworks (who apparently sold the rights to both Yak and Thule?). Anyhow - these are pricey racks, but they're the best in my opinion. Loading bikes on/off takes seconds - literally. And, they'll work with any bike/frame; doesn't matter what the frame looks like, or the size of the wheels.
#669 of 902 Changing Dome or Reading Lights by jt8 Jan 12, 2007 (9:45 am)
Anybody know how to change them ? I looked at the manual & did not find any information on how to pry open the light housing.   Would be nice if anybody can point me to a document which details this out.   I want to change the lights from OEM yellowish to something a little bit brighter.   thanks in advance.

Replying to: jt8 (Jan 12, 2007 9:45 am) Lots of folks have done LED conversions using parts from Radio Shack. Do a google search and you should find something. Replies to this message: jt8 (Jan 12, 2007 10:58 am) user777 (Jan 13, 2007 12:51 pm) cableguy06 (Jan 13, 2007 6:21 am)
