White is so much more modern. BMW can get rid of the tacky silver plastic trim around the radio and other interior elements while they are at it.

Personally, I like orange at night. I find white glaring.

I think if they toned down the brightness at night the white wouldn't be so glaring. Much like how an iPhone adjusts the screen brightness depending on the time of day.

I'm working on a few other custom interior elements as well. Just waiting to get settled into my new home in Tampa Bay. I'll need a couple weeks to unpack and set up my garage. Should have pics and couple write ups to share by Spring.

You can adjust brightness with toggle switch. But, I also rarely look at dash as I use HUD.

I understand, but that's the issue. You have to navigate thru several menu layers to adjust. It should be "smart" and adjust the brightness based on ambient lighting conditions.

Same here - I much prefer orange to white.
If someone figures out how to get instrument cluster lighting to go back to BMW, orange instead of Honda white, do share.

TIA,
