So maybe I've missed the thread or the answer to this question but I'm confused. I am in the U.S, why does the front turn signal have dual filaments? When I turn on my headlights they don't light. My dad had a Ridgeline , for obvious reasons, was the same set up. One could make the argument that it could be a DRL, but they have them in the headlights.

Dual filament turn signal bulbs are meant to work as both turn signal and parking lights.

And I agree......but then why don't they light as parking lights?

The front parking lights on the Passport are on the corner of the headlights. I think Honda borrowed the dual filament turn signal bulbs from the parts bin of a vehicle that shares the turn signal with the parking light.

I would tend to agree. A long time ago I saw a Ridgeline that has them on with the parking lights. I wonder what it would take, cause I think the PP would look nice that way. I would imagine it's alot of hacking wires and replacing sockets, which I'm sure will screw with the CAN bus.
