As a new type of interior decorative lighting, vehicle ambient lighting has always been favored by many young car owners. Ambient lighting consists of LED linear lights that can be installed in desired locations, allowing users to change the color and brightness according to their preferences. By clicking on the vehicle settings in the multimedia display and entering the lighting settings interface, users can adjust the settings. Functions such as brightness, color, and driving ambient lighting can be configured via the multimedia display. The interior ambient lighting serves as decorative lighting, typically in colors like red, blue, and green. Its main purpose is to enhance the vehicle's aesthetics at night, create ambiance, and set the mood inside the cabin. After unlocking the doors, the ambient lights on the dashboard and seat positions will automatically turn on and remain lit. The ambient lights will turn off once the vehicle is locked. The ambient lighting inside the vehicle can be located in areas such as the steering wheel, center console, footwell lights, cup holders, roof, welcome lights, scuff plates, doors, trunk, and headlights.
As a seasoned car enthusiast who frequently modifies vehicles, my experience installing ambient lighting in the CS75 was quite interesting. First, prepare a vehicle-specific ambient lighting kit, which can be purchased online—opt for the LED version for better energy efficiency and durability. Open the car door and carefully remove the screws from the door panel and center console, being cautious not to scratch the interior. Then, use 3M adhesive to attach the light strips along the interior seams, planning the placement in advance—spots like the footwell or door handle areas look especially nice. When routing the wires, follow the original vehicle wiring to avoid tangling; typically, connect them to the ACC fuse in the fuse box so the lights turn on with the ignition. Finally, test the lighting and adjust the color and brightness to avoid glare while driving. The whole process takes about two hours, and once completed, the interior instantly feels more premium, creating a great ambiance for night drives. A quick tip: after installation, check all wire connections to prevent short circuits that could affect the car’s electrical system, and regularly clean the light strips to extend their lifespan.
