Ambient Lights??

I am waiting for my 05 C230 SS to be delivered next month. While passing time and reading the forums I have seen ambient lighting mentioned on the 05s from the rear view mirror. Does anyone have pictures and what does it light up?

I will take real pics today.

I have upgraded the the new rear-view miror with ambient light.

To be truth is something that you wont notice. The original mercedes led is too weak.

Best Regards.

Ruben.

Yes, it is barely noticible. The mirror with LED, garage door opener, and auto dimming runs about 850 at the dealer. A total rip off.

Me too, I am going to start looking into a way to integrate into the current rear-view mirror. On the loaners that I have had I thought that it made a nice amber glow that was very noticable to me.

i just like the look. in my beetle i upgraded teh rearview mirror to the TurboS autodimming and it had the ambient lighting. the LED's dont stand out, but i think they are noticable. for me, i want it.
