Center Console Ambient Lighting

I haven’t seen this installed on other cars, but it looks absolutely stunning at night. The carbon fiber version looks legit with the other carbon fiber interior pieces during the day too. Got it from the gents at infinite autowerks: https://infiniteautowerks.com/shop/i...ighting-suite/

Wish you could buy the knee guard deals without the lighting stuff they look killer. Hows the steering wheel?

The wheel is my favorite part of the interior tbh. Feels great, heated, and I got the m1/m2 buttons and magnetic paddle shifters to go with it. It really sets the interior off because it's the first thing you see.

I haven't looked, but it's the same as the 3 series and there's probably one out there for that. Only diff is that I watched it being installed and the clearance for the wiring harness on the 2 is less than the 3. I'd route the harness through the OEM channel.

I'll have to shoot them a message the alcantara oem ones aren't bad but it would be the only alcantara in the car so kinda odd imo.

I watched someone else install it but it looked pretty easy. The toughest part seemed like it was routing the cable, but once you get the center counsel up to put in the cup holder you can see the OEM channel to route the cable through. Everything kind of just pops on and off in the interior. May have been a few screws for the center counsel, I’m not sure.
