Where is the Starlight Roof Switch in the Buick GL8?
2 Answers
The starlight roof switch in the Buick GL8 is located in the central control area on the top of the vehicle. Here is some relevant information: 1. Exterior: The exterior design inherits the dignified and noble feel of the Buick family while highlighting a modern and dynamic style. The front end incorporates more sharp lines, giving the vehicle a more powerful appearance. The front face features a brand-new design, with an electroplated and sprayed finish that enhances the texture of the front grille. The chrome trim surrounding the grille connects with the headlights, and the headlight design on both sides of the grille has been redesigned for a more integrated look. The side profile features two sharp character lines, with the lower window line flattened and the upper window line adorned with a chrome trim. 2. Powertrain: The new-generation Buick GL8 family is equipped with General Motors' latest Smart Propulsion technology, featuring a powertrain combination of the eighth-generation Ecotec 2.0T variable-cylinder turbocharged engine and a 9-speed HYDRA-MATIC intelligent transmission. This setup delivers robust power of 174kW and 350Nm. The 9-speed intelligent transmission, along with the newly equipped ETRS electronic gear shift, ensures quicker shift responses and smoother power delivery.
The GL8's starlight headliner switch mainly comes in two control methods: physical buttons are usually located on the overhead control panel—look for the small star-shaped button next to the sunroof switch. Additionally, all models support control via the central touchscreen; navigate to the 'Lighting' or 'Ambient Lighting' menu and scroll to find the starlight headliner switch option. Note that lower trims may not have this feature, while the top-tier Avenir version includes it as standard. Last time, my friend spent five minutes searching through the touchscreen menu to turn on the starlight headliner to calm their child on the highway—pressing the overhead button would've been much quicker. After activation, the starlight effect illuminates the roof in about 3 seconds, making it perfect for enhancing ambiance during nighttime long-distance drives.
