So we have this vast array of customisable interior lighting colours and also several pre programmed colour schemes, I have left mine on the default green what colours do you like ?

I'm probably going to try to match the blue colour of the car. We'll see when it arrives and I have time to play with the settings.

I quite like the ‘Ocean’ preset (cyan?) but turned it to orange last night - which looks nice and subconsciously makes me feel warmer, so perhaps I’ll be less inclined to use the heating!!

We use the same light-tricks at home; blue LED lighting during the summer (to try to create a cooler ambiance) and orange LED lighting during the winter, to create a warming ambiance. Not sure the kids are fully convinced about this though 😜

Can't you just turn it off? :D

And "black" light is great if you have night vision as it's what an IR light source is referred to, so visible through night vision goggles but not with the naked eye.
:ugeek:

Not much use in this instance though!

Can someone help me with what I am doing wrong? I can't seem to get the lighting to update. It'll change colour when I change Eco (green) mode to Normal (white), but I can't customise it for myself. I get the error below:

or is it the case I haven't purchased the add-on that enables this feature?

As far as I know all UK models should have it. Loft in other countries don’t though. Does it change when select Individual at all?

Mine’s currently set to a slightly purply blue for the doors and dashboard, with more purple for the centre console storage.

So I'm in the UK, and the options are all there. When I dismiss the "Sorry, this function is currently unavailable" message, I can drag the slider but almost immediately, the error message appears. That is why you can see I have pink and blue chosen. However, the colour that comes on is Green as I am in Eco Mode.

Its got to be the Green. Skoda colour works best.

My wife and I constantly argue about this and change colours as we use :D .
