I just purchased an 07 Accord EX-L w/ NAVI for my wife. With it, I also purchased the EX Sport Package (Wing Spoiler, Fog Lights, and auto Day/Nite Mirror). When it came time to install the EX Sport Package, the dealer service rep claims they could not install both the Fog Lights and the Day/Nite Mirror. Somehow they are incompatable with each other

.

Supposedly they will be refunding the price of the mirror portion of the package, but that's not the point. Does anyone have a good explanation for not being able to to install these two accessories? Also, if they really can't both be installed on the same car, why then heck are they both included in the Sport Package on the dealer accessory sheet?

maybe they both require a button on the side panel (where the VSA button is) and there is only one opening

If you haven't taken the car home yet walk away while you can. If it's offered another dealer can do it.

Thanks but I had already taken delivery when I posted the original question. The day/night mirror would have been nice to have, but given the choice between it and the fog lights, I chose the fog lights.

fogs are the better choice IMO, the accord is a good car, but I can't see sh!t at night using the headlights.

can't beat the reliablilty though

btw, are there any features that you didn't buy
