Anyone have pictures of the Ambient Lighting?

akim89 · 03-06-2022, 01:02 PM

I can't seem to find any post/pics of the 230i/240i interior ambient lighting. I was wondering if the front dash area lights up like it does in the g20 3 series? Or if anyone can pinpoint where the ambient lighting is in the car. Pics if possible! Appreciate the help!

there's several night POV videos on youtube of the m240i... the ambient light is not on the passenger dashboard area... it's mainly the doors, map pockets, and footwells... and some overhead

Stinks we didn't get the dashboard. It was on the original demo models

The ambient lighting is underwhelming, even on the brightest setting.

Stole these photos from somewhere. But it's a good representation of both options

Yea, looking back I was hoping it was more than this overall.

The middle pic is actually my car. The ambient lighting is not dramatic at all…just the doors, the cup holder when the lid is open and a couple tiny LEDs overhead (which are hardly noticeable).

Sorry, didn't mean to steal your pic! I just took a bunch of screenshots to compare options to make up my decision 😜
