I have this in my 2014 AB and its not what you would expect from the onscreen display it only change the colour of the leds in the armrest centre console that shines over the gear stick area the rest are just white as normal, if you switch to dynamic mode they go read anyway, and some of the colours look terrible if im honest (some even make you feel sick) Blue is ok but a little bit boy racer, Green is ok if you like Alienware stuff.

It not brilliant and definitely not something you would feel was value for money on the earlier models.

PowerfulUK do some aftermarket floor lighting bulb fittings that ou can swap out to Blue if you wanted to match them all up but they are a fixed colour so its blue all the time If a jobs worth doing, get a someone who knows what they are doing to do it!

I love all the toys on my 17 RRS AB but count me in on major disappointment for this one. Now heated steering wheel...

Yep agree heated Wheel and the seats is a must! Not from home as she is say in the garage but when away from home it great!

You know what the AC in the seats is also pretty good in summer, when its been as hot as it has this year and you are wearing shorts and a tshirt its not all bad (just enough to take the edge off) If you go out for a long walk in the outdoors it gets pretty hot on the leather (unless you have ivory) and add in the timed climate and its a winner.

Keep some ice packs in the fridge for some cold drinkypoos too!

I had a play tonight with the lighting and I have to be honest I would like to meet the guy who designed and the guy who tested it just to work out how they thought all the effort that went into the programming the screen GUI all to change the colour on 2 Led's (yeah thats right 2) when for £9.99 I can buy a metre strip of the things with a remote control! It just didnt seem worth the effort, had they of just cabled it to some additional ones scattered around the car (in addition to the normal floor lamps) it might have been ok!

If I'm honest Id rather have some Red and Blue in the behind the grill and some at the back! just so I could flip them on when someone is tailgating me or cuts me up just to watch them fill their trousers!

Ill be honest I was excited to have it too but its is poor really and maybe because its only 2 leds it just make hardly any difference to the ambience at all!

Anyone used the winter heater thing I've never tried it If a jobs worth doing, get a someone who knows what they are doing to do it!
