Low beam is printed as 55 W (H11) and as LED. High beam is printed as 60 W (HB3) and as LED. The asterisk on the page means not available on all models.
Fog lights, front turn and front side marker, parking and daytime running lights, mirror side turn, the combined brake, taillights, rear turn, and rear side marker row, the separate taillights row, the high-mount brake light, and the license light are printed as LED.
Back-up lights are 16 W. The table does not print a trade number, so this page does not add one.
Interior lights in the same table are map lights 8 W or LED, ceiling light 8 W or LED, cargo area lights 5 W, and vanity mirror lights 1.4 W. Those are not exterior steps. Map, ceiling, and vanity rows are also marked not available on all models where the table uses an asterisk.
Outbound links only. BaySheet does not sell parts. Confirm fitment on the retailer page. Amazon links are searches for a real part name plus this vehicle. Tool rows do not get a product search. The search is not a part number.

Back-up lights are printed as 16 W with no trade number. Do not add a 921 or W16W number from another Honda.
Rows marked not available on all models are not a trim crosswalk. The table does not name the trims.
The maintenance checklist is on the site now. The email list is not sending yet, so this box will not store an address.
Same repair, different model year. Use the page that matches the truck or car in the driveway. A figure on one year is not a figure for the next.
These guides cover the same kind of work. Their numbers belong to those vehicles, not to this one.
