I really have to look hard to see the effect of the so-called accent lighting on the interior of my 2017. I really think a well done (read classy) system like on some of the newer Mercedes, BMWs, etc., adds to the interior feel. I don't mean just bulbs, but the light-tube style where it runs through the trim. Has anyone seen or done upgrades to suggest?

 

I am also interested in doing an upgrade. Hope someone provides input

 

Hi the question I have is that the accent light on my 2014 v8s, when I change the color scheme only some of them change mostly around the console.
the door accent lights do not change is this a bug that can be fixed?

 

Not a bug. They’re all like that.

 

I replaced all the lights in my '06 XK8 with LEDs. Made a big difference, but I think most of the lights in the F-Type are already LED.

 

Yes, most are LEDs and difficult if not impossible to replace (eg the overhead console lights).
The ones that I know for sure are old-fashioned crappy yellow halogens are the footwell lights.
I replaced those with nice bright white LEDs (COB "chip on board" type) years ago, although they are a tad difficult to get at.

 

Thanks, I think its kind of strange when you change colors they only change some.

 

It appears the door handle backlight stays the same throughout, but the door panel (below) should change through the options:

 

2017 V6S convertible..hw do I access changing interior lighting ...had NO clue!.....

 

It is accessed through the infotainment screen under extras. Buried in one of the submenus you can adjust five different colors and intensities. You can kind of see it on the screen in my picture.

 

Look for the Ambient Lighting button.

 

I believe the changeable ambient lighting was an option, at least initially.

 

^^^ It's still an option (in the UK at least) on the non-R models. I opted for it on my P450 because it was only another 100 quid or so, with the performance seats, and on what I was paying it was peanuts for something that I could play with. Honestly, I really just liked the idea of the illuminated treadplates that are part of the same pack.
