I like fake hood scoop. Lights would make it over the top. Needs more that 3 light tho. Camping Randy tried to make one and gave up. I would buy one in a second if it was like a plug and play set up. I want to get trail lights for it some day. Would look more offroady

 

If/when you see a driving light kit, please let us know.
Thanks,
Brian

 

The first thing I pictured when I saw the scoop was LIGHTS! I love how the Passport is sticking it to 4Runner, Land Cruiser, Land Rover and Bronco Sport with all those design cues! Granted, it doesn't come close to the offroad ability of some of those, but the statement that Honda is making is awesome! "Look out, we're new to the game, and officially on the board!" It only gets better from here! I can't wait to see the 5GPPTS!

 

Yeah I totally agree. The 2026 is a bit too edgy for someone my age especially the orange but here they only have one in stock at a time so...

I do a lot of driving on country roads in moose season so I'm looking for a clean way to install a couple of driving lights without hacking. I don't want snow, water or salt slush to actually get into the engine compartment through that fake vent but looks like the only place to put a couple of driving lights.

 

I like the hood scoop. Its functional since that will be the one spot, on the hood, I don't have to worry about getting a rock chip.

 

What you are going for there reminds me of the fog lights in the Tundra. They are integrated in to the grill and pretty much vanish when not in use. Key for me would be to find a light that fits in, does not impact the integrity of the hood and can be aimed or integrated in to the auto dim feature so the Popo doesn't take exception. I doubt there is much if any depth behind that plastic.

Does anyone know if that "scoop" is just held on with body tape or clips? How do you propose to seal the hole for wires and to prevent water, salt and dirt from getting in and starting it to corrode?

What about adding lights up by the A pillars?

 

Not a fan. Why should the Ford Raptor be the styling impetus for a Honda?

 

Of all the styling cues from other competing vehicles, I never even once saw Raptor in there. I currently own a F150, too. Interesting.

 

Scoop light is cool.

 

I had a 2019 Tacoma TRD Sport with a fake hood scoop. Hated the scoop, loved the truck. I don't like the Passport scoop but at least it's not obstructing my view. I would've optioned a scoop.

 

Delete that sucker... 2nd choice is to paint it body color.

 

I would def add lights to the scoop if there was a DIY kit or a full guide on how to do it. Same amber color as DRLs would be cool

 

While this old fellow may be mistaken, it reminds me of the 80s TV car show about some modded up Pont. Firebird, I'm thinking it was called KITT? I'll reserve judgement on it.

I will however give my full endorsement to Sally Fields in her Firebird film with Burt Reynolds.
Yee-owww!

 

Good grief man...the show was Knight Rider.

 

Maybe it's a place-holder for the up and coming Supercharger kit that will add ram-air.

 

I was thinking about retrofitting some old Nissan license plate LED lights to the hood scoop area... the finish would be very similar, and they are small enough to work.... ill probably try them out soon

 

Just saw this on camping randy and it's def a launching pad for getting a light bar in there

Isn’t he just selling the OEM hood scoop and telling people to mod it?

 

Nice! I didn't think of the delete when I posted my photoshop question about the hood scoop. I was considering using: 2021 - 2025 Ford Bronco Raptor Style LED Grill Kit

Not sure I want to spend all that money just to have it not turn out well though.

I like the 2nd pic but with Amber lights to match the DRLs of the TSE, maybe I'll tinker with it. Just have to figure out where to source the LEDs from

 

the hard thing about the scoop on the passport... is its overall profile... its actually very narrow, and the side profile is shaped like a "Z" ... its hard to explain, but the "inner part" or "back" of the hood scoop isnt awkwardly angled... no light sits flush against the back of it... itll take extensive cutting to fit anything "inside" of it... hence why i wanted to plop some license plate lights onto it. Ill get around to it at some point lol
