I have played around with the interior lighting and have settled on the dark blue which looks great. One thing I have noticed is that regardless of what colour I have selected, there is white light down in the footwell. Do others see this? I wonder why it isn’t blue or whatever colour was selected. If I turn down the overall interior lighting the white light dims as well, but it never changes colour. Does anyone know how to turn the lights in the footwell off?

I noticed the same thing. I wonder why they wouldn't make that blue as well.

I didnt even notice this color could be changed! There are so many things that I do not know about this car yet even after having one for 6 weeks

I feel like an idiot as no matter where i searched I could not figure out how to change the interior lighting. Care to help?

Did you opt for the "Configurable Ambient Interior Lighting" in your vehicle configuration? If yes, then scroll to the "Extra Features" screen from the Touchscreen Home (additional screens to the right of the Home screen). Ambient Lighting is one of the options there.

OK I didnt think it was an add on option and came default. I didnt configure my car, just walked into the nearby dealers with my crashed old one and asked what can I get for this old, damaged clunker....ended up with an Ipace that they used as a temporary loaner / test car. Thought it had everything in it but apparently not. Thanks for the help.

Yea, unfortunately Jag decided to charge $250 for a feature that is standard on a number of much cheaper cars :|

Ten bucks says that it would actually "work" in every car if they just flipped the right bit in the software. They're charging you to flip the bit.

I resisted. I did spend $100 on the cooled glovebox tho

The other owner I know in Phoenix says he keeps small water bottles in there. He says it uses the same coolant loop keeping the battery cool.

Yep the ambient lighting is simply a software setting, as I have the light blue color by default so its just in the software. Regarding the cooled glove box, that one I dont need, the frunk works great as a cool box all year round here where I live
