Hi.
On the Start/Stop button, what are the chances of changing the horrible 'orange' glow at night to something a bit more modern... like Blue?

Did you notice how the button is illuminated when you took it apart?

Thanks

When I had the switch taken apart it was lighting up orange. Appeared like orange LEDs. Not really sure how the color could be changed.

Sorry I read this after I took it apart and didn't take any pics, but there were several "nubs" in the switch body that lit up.

Just dropping a quick thank you to IND for this thread!

Changed out the boring black start button for their blue one. Looks WAY better!!!!

Didn't know IND sold this until now, but I found one on Amazon for like $20. Comes with some silly-putty type stuff that you just press firmly onto the button and quickly pull it straight out. Install took literally 20 seconds. Amazing quality piece too!

That was the method of replacement for E-class buttons. But F-class buttons have clips. So you broke the clip, and have an E-class button cover that just taps on? I would have done it with the right part, instead of saving the easy 5 minutes.

Nope. 2015 M4 (F82). Stock part and new part were identical. Popped right out with just a little force and popped right back in. Nothing broken, no tabs that need disassembly of the entire assembly.

I must have gotten a faulty one. Although my car did start up much faster
