This does not affect the "Ambient Lighting", right?

This is only referring to the other lights inside the car, right?

It's like a soft glow light overhead that you can barely tell is on. You can really tell when you stick your hand close to it and then you see it shining on your hand. It's kind of cool. Not sure if its standard in all countries, but is in the U.S. Has been on previous late models as well.

Is it really Xenon or just blue tinted lights?

I'm amazed that the installation for Xenon interior lights would be so simple. I mean, just plug it in???

definetly not xenon...will have to change the whole wiring system if they are! these are just blue tinted bulbs which produce white light. looks good but stressful on the eyes for longer periods.
