BMW 3 & 4 Series ambient lighting

A true OEM retrofit. Eight factory colours, chosen from iDrive, as if the car came with it.

OEM Retrofit Standard

Factory, not an imitation.

BMW built the wiring and the iDrive menu; most F30s and F32s left without the hardware. We fit it and code it in, so it appears in iDrive as standard.

Base Retrofit Package

Included from AUD $1850

Footwell lighting

Your choice of invisible or visible design. Invisible stays a clean trim line until lit; visible shows the engraved pattern day and night.

Front and rear footwell lighting matching your selected iDrive ambient colour scheme perfectly.

Climate panel glow

Cupholder lighting

Custom Additions

Add to your build.

Illuminated grab handles

From AUD $400. Handles swapped for units that glow along the underside, colour-matched to the cabin.

Door handles and storage

From AUD $200. Handle recesses and door pockets lit from inside, so you can find what you dropped in.

Illuminated speaker grills

From AUD $450. Light through the speaker mesh itself, so the grille pattern becomes the light source.

Tweeter lights

From AUD $300. A lit ring around each A-pillar tweeter, the detail people notice first at night.
