The light under the mirror is the best bit as far as I can tell if you are somewhere really dark.

Package consists of: -

"Lighting of outer door area in outside mirror; door-opener lighting, front footwell lights underneath instrument panel, ambient light in front and rear door pannels and door exit lights at rear".

I have this option and it's pretty good. The lights in the door mirrors look great but only really help when getting into the car because as soon as you open the door the door itself shields the light they provide as they swing away from the car. The additional cabin lighting makes the interior fairly bright.

I believe it is part of the premium package in the US; our 525 has it. The exterior mirror lighting is very useful when entering the car at night in poorly lit areas.

The light under mirror is so dim that you can barely tell it?s on.
