Hello Fellow Passport Enthusiasts!

Just bought a new ‘23 Passport EX-L AWD in Sonic Grey Pearl and loving it! I’ve had my eyes on this model for the past 3 years and finally made the dream come true.
I’m a die hard Honda fanatic and import tuner enthusiast. I own a 98 Integra and a ‘15 Accord as well. So, I am definitely looking foreword to the many hours of research on this forum, as well as share my build progress. This SUV platform is so underrated and can’t wait to represent to the world what this awesome vehicle can do!
This is my first SUV, first V6, and first AWD experience. Any advice or feedback is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!!

Congratulations on your lovely car and welcome to the forum.

Here are three quick Passport mods a tuner might be interested in:
1. Delete ANC.
2. Install VCM Tuner to free the V6.
3. Install IdleStopper to automate disabling the Idle Stop system.

Congratulations! Beautiful vehicle. I had Chevy Trailblazers since my first new '89 S-10 Blazer. Got my first Honda in 2019 with my Passport Elite. It was a lease that I ultimately bought at the end of the lease. I just couldn't make myself part with it. Enjoy your new Passport!!

I have a 2022 EX-L, I see the 2023 still do not have fog lamps

Yes, they don't. I was really surprised and totally forgot to check at the dealership. No biggie though, I've installed fog lights after the fact on my 98 Integra. I was doing some research on the forum and found this thread:

Aftermarket fog lights?

Are there any aftermarket fog light replacements for the 2019/2020 Passport yet? The OEM lights are not good at all. Looking for a bright, low and wide amber light to cut through the fog better.

www.passportforums.com

Seems like a good option for us would be the Diode Dynamics SS3 LED Fog Light Kit for 2012 to 2020 Pilot from @sprocket post. I've read that the stock fogs lights are underwhelming lumens wise, and the SS3 kit is brighter and can see more detail on the road (amber color version).

Another option I was looking into was the Jsport Ditch Light: https://jsportusa.com/product/honda-passport-2016-2022-ditch-light-brackets/
Which mounts at a different location at the corner where the hood meets the front windshield window. I know it won't have the tilt down like real fogs, but at least opens up different and unique lighting set up for the Passport.
