Coming from a 2021 Honda Odyssey the headlights on the Carnival SX are a downgrade for me. I’m missing the headlight brightness the Odyssey has. I have 3 questions

1. Can anyone with an SX or lower share their comments on the headlights?
2. I was thinking of buying the SXP headlight assembly (LED Projectors) and install it. Can anyone with a SXP share their opinion on the projector headlights?
As a side gain I’ll get those beautiful LED turn signals
3. Or should I rather go with an aftermarket headlight package?

Sorry, don't got anything for you re: headlights.

If you don't mind me asking, why the change from '21 Ody to '22 Carnival?
Did you trade it in or keeping both?

Keeping both for now

Keeping both for now

Would you be able to share a few PROs and CONs of Carnival against the Odyssey? Most interested in the handling, braking, suspension, and any quirks that would make you go for one or the other. I drove 18' Sedona and it had an extremely mushy suspension that made the passenger and kids in the back car sick. Is this an issue with the new Carnival or did the new platform resolve this?

Ha, a lot of folks asking for this @CrystalSun. You should just do a youTube video. You might be able to monetize it given the number of views that are guaranteed : ). Thanks in advance.

I will post a list of features and functions and my opinion on each feature/function in the coming days

The SXP headlights have the DRL's double as turn signals. That likely means they have an extra wire or 2 in the harness that may not be compatible with the regular SX harness. There's a used assembly on eBay for $850 right now. I just couldn't shell out that much cash for an experiment like this. Maybe some aftermarket solutions will pop up in the next year or 2?

Hi. Any updates regarding the headlights? I have an EX carnival & would love to upgrade it to the SXP headlights (aftermarket is ok too) if possible. Thank you in advance.

As far as I know, no one has tried the retrofit. I also don't believe there are any aftermarket solutions available to North America yet. Though I'm pretty sure the Koreans might have something that could work. They have a much bigger demand for aftermarket accessories than the US does.
