Ambient Lighting

I notice noone has posted any pics of the ambient interior lighting...I know the orange lights have always been in the rear and front on roof of BMW, to give that orange glow, but as part of the Premium package, BMW Canada list Lighting package...which are more lights in the interior door handle recess and also in the door pockets and I think also in footwell.

Apparently though the overall effect at night is gorgeous.
I'd love to see someone post pics of this.

So it's kinda like in the S550 but on a smaller scale?

And while on the topic of lights, has anybody else noticed that in reverse, the fog lights automatically go on?
And that when the DRLs are on, the taillights are on too?

He is talking about the ambient light package available in the 335.

I don't know if the E70 offers it.....

There are lights in the door bins and door handles, but not on the roof.

The exterior has some very cool lighting in the door handles (white light) that illuminates the ground when you push the remote button...its very cool. I never noticed the interior lights, I will check tonight.
