For coupes their is only one space for the button which is why you can't install both without some "creativity." For the 07 coupes there is no space for a button at all due to the VSA button.

definingmoment, I sent you a PM. It helps to know which car you have. Be as specific as you can. I assume you have a coupe, or else this wouldn't be an issue.

DX/LX/EX/Si?

Only the Si models have VSA (Stability Control). For the rest of the coupes, you only have one spot for either ambient lighting or fogs. But, you can be creative and order the 2007 Si Fog Light Kit instead of the normal one. That will fit perfectly in the coupe, and place the fog controls on the steering wheel light switch.

Then you can place the ambient lighting in it's normal place.
