Title: Ambient lighting
Post by: Shabba168 on December 28, 2012, 08:19:41 pm

When i had my S3 it had ambient footwell lighting
The foot well lights would come on when the doors were opened and they would dim a bit when driving at night is this option availible on gti?

Possible with the correct CECM, 30 byte. Doesn't dim much though so fairly bright.

It can be coded and as Luka says you need a 30 byte CECM. You will need the right one though. I believe it needs to be the 3C8 version not the 3C0. I have the 3C0 and although the option is there for ambient footwell lighting, it did not work when coded.

Edited as I missed a word out ooops.

Yep, mine's the 3C8 version and it worked for me. If only you could dim the light a little more.  :sad1:

Can footwell lights be added? As my TDI doesn't have them...?
