Messing about with different ambient lighting choices but keep coming back to the red in my car as it gives the effect of more extensive red leather without the cost!

Not really a thread TBH, just a bored moment :)

All lighting here set to 80% which is a little bit too bright but does still look cool.

I like keeping the music linked ambient lighting option selected. Not so much because I think it blends that well with the music or album cover but more so because otherwise I would not think to ever change the color and it would just be the same every time. This way I get to see the different colors over time without me needing to change anything.

How does it decide a colour? Is it just random, or does it use a key colour from the album art?

Correct it uses the album art. Sometimes it’s a color that just compliments the album art if there is not a direct match or the album art is multicolored. The transitions in the ambient lighting between songs are subtle. I actually don’t notice the change until I realize that it’s a different color in the car. Neat feature.

Noice!

I seem to have latched into orange lighting set a little lower.. Not sure why but it seems to play really well off of the red leather interior, to my eyes.

I still think it's really weird that you're limited to a set of different colours instead of just giving us a colour wheel or RGB sliders to set whatever colours we want.

Ambient lights and Porsche logo on doorlights are cooler than I thought, low price fun and speciality. I recommend, too!

Can’t for the life of me find where in the menus you can switch on dynamic ambient lighting (synced to your music). Can anyone please help? Thanks.

I have red interior and love the red ambient but the red seems dim compared to other colors. I have them all at 100% as well.
