White Interior lights ?

So you telling me no one here has white LED interior lights? All my past cars my first mod was changing the interior lights from ugly stock yellow to bright nice white ones.

I got the footwell lights from burger tuning but those are the only lights i see online everywhere.



2013 328i XDrive btw

Just purchased a 335I and was also surprised that A) The stock interior lights (even in top trim) are old school yellow/orange and B) There is scarce material out there on the matter. A good friend told me the interior lights are LED, but intentionally encased in a material that makes them a warmer tone. I don't know if I buy into this theory though.

Mine are all LED, all white, and it's a base model.

You can change between white and orange through the settings. Luxury line came with both options, I'm sure the other models are similar.

My 2013 328i XDRiVE didn't come with any option of changing from yellow to white.

For those of us 3 series folks before LCI updates with yellow lights, is there any way to change the dome lights in the interior?

You know what you may need to have the lighting package in order to change the color. My car is pre-LCI.

Well my cousin has a 2014 535i XDrive and it also has these ugly stock interior lights, he CAN change his ambient lighting from orange to white but the ambient lighting isn't the same as the bright yellow interior lighting when you open a door.

Right your talking about the map and reading lights. I'll double check but I believe mine are white for those, not yellow.
