Mood lighting retrofit

jmg · 01-05-2019, 07:17 PM

I really miss the interior mood lighting of my old i3 Giga World. Has anyone added them to a Deca interior with OEM or aftermarket lighting? Nothing too flashy.

I am also wondering the same thing! Can't seem to find anyone who did it online.

My 2014 Giga had it, and when I bought a brand new 2018 with the black interior ("Atelier" here in Canada), the vendor didn't know (hence didn't tell me) I wouldn't get the ambient lightning.

I called my dealership and they can do it, but they say they have to change my whole Trim level, which means thousands and thousands of dollars :-(

I would have hoped that it was just a matter of adding a bit of wiring and leds, since the trims are, beyond colors and fabrics, otherwise identical.
