Interior Lighting
Hey Guys,
I have noticed that during the day the lighting on the stereo, gear stick etc is white but at night it changes to orange. Likewise with the digital dash. Is there anyway to change the lighting so that it stays white both day and night? |

I haven't seen anyone post about coding it so far to date.
A very quick read as to why BMW has stuck with the red/orange lighting even while transitioning to using white for daytime: https://www.bmwblog.com/2017/02/28/e...ts-always-red/

I've coded the instrument Cluster to stay white at night and i love it. Never thought about coding the rest of the car, thinking about it now it might actually be nice

Also if you find a way of coding the rest of the car please share!! I am not a fan at all of the orange at night. |

Not pertinent to the change in orange to white color thread, but hey thought I would chime in my comments lol. I think it is safer. EDIT: read the article after writing my excerpt and I guess I am not alone in liking the orange/redish warm interior color at night change. Guess BMW was way ahead of its time as well ha. |
