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...?
