I had no idea that's what BMW called those lights in the mirrors. Are you sure, Gene?

in 2008+ i believe they offer "ambient lighting" in the interior. i have tiny little led lights above my door handles and in my overhead console which gives a nice orange glow on the silver accents in the interior

The little side mirror lights are called "puddle lamps". Makes me want to pet something cute for some reason.
