The transmission return line on your 2005 Honda Pilot can be located between the frame crosstube and the drivers side support bracket (see photo). The return line will be the line closest to the front of the vehicle.
We installed Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler, # D13503, on a 2006 Honda Pilot. I attached the video for you to check out. The installation should be almost identical on your 2005 Pilot.

any tips on making installation of the lines easier? Theyre a very tight fit. Getting them onto the cooler is not too difficult but working with the radiator and transmission with hard to reach angles is really challenging.
