I have a set of projector depo lights from uniquestyleracing. They have been fine for me. I recently swapped my halogen H1 bulbs for an LED bulb and it\u2019s plenty bright at night.

Pros: plenty bright at night

OEM Honda Headlights

I was worried about the ’26 CR-V Sport Hybrid headlights—no fog lights or steering-linked lights like my Subaru—but they’re actually really bright and clear. No regrets!

Pros: really bright and clear
Cons: no fog lights
Vehicle: Honda

OEM Honda Headlights

I just traded my '23 HR-V Sport AWD after 3 years and 61k miles.

Positives:

Mine was rock solid reliable, never had a repair other than one recall.

This is subjective, but I found it to be really good looking and comfortable.

Features like adaptive cruise and lane keep assist make long drives much less tiring.

Interior materials are pretty nice for the price point.

Negatives:

It doesn't have much power and gets decent, but not amazing gas mileage.

No rear heat/AC

Another subjective one, but I personally don't much care for the feel of the CVT.

Headlights come aimed too high and due to the design (inside pair of lamps are part of low-beams), people constantly flashed me at night, thinking my high beams were on. This got a lot better after taking ten minutes with a screw driver to aim the lamps down a bit.

Pros: rock solid reliable, good looking
Cons: not much power, CVT feel
Vehicle: Honda
Mileage: 98170 km

I ran Depos on a 97 M3 for a while, much better than the condition of the headlights when I bought the car, middle of the road for me and I have horrible night vision.

Pros: much better condition
Cons: middle of the road
Vehicle: BMW
