Thanks!
This may have zero value but it now pops back up in my memory from delivery. When we were searching for the Ambient, I asked the salesman if the window buttons and headlight switch were illuminated. He said "no". Of course I was surprised as I cannot remember the last vehicle I had without illuminated switches. Of course, that turned out to be incorrect. I have no idea why yours aren't but I'd guess its probably just a bad fuse. Finding it might not be so easy (with three fuse boxes!). Let us know what happens.

Hey Red...im loving it so far. My coworkers are enjoying the lunch rides . I will be starting my modding early tomorrow morning with my buddy. I take a bunch of before and after pics. Should have about 80% of my mods completed tomorrow.

You can mod just put it back to stock when you return it.

Yeah..the weather sucks right now and its not going to get any better this weekend. All my parts are waiting at home for me. Thankfully my buddy is helping me install most of the stuff in his garage.

Are you going to install LED License Plate? Im thinking of getting the the R Dash lights. Anybody have any good solution for it? I know I can do a search and I already have.

Nope they are not. They even got rid of the strut to hold up the cargo floor up...had to go order parts for it. It would be hard to hold that cargo floor up with one hand and try to pull the space saver spare out with the other. BMW trying to cut cost.....:

I didn't know that. I guess I need to check out my ride and see what the "standard" mods are and start my list

DaRip, any chance of a few interior shots? I'm interested in the same internal combo and possibly the same exterior. Thanks.
