Dome lights in sport mode vs classic

Has anyone noticed that when ambient lights are set to sport the car lights up real bright (LED) from dome lights? But when is classic mode the dome lights are dim.

Does anyone know how to code so they are bright in both modes?

You can't really compare brightness of 2 different colors. White light is always going to "appear" brighter than any other color on the light spectrum. No matter bright you make the orange, white will always be brighter. Its like asking how do I make black light as bright as white light? Not possible

It's not the two little lights, it's the big dome light... does not change in color is just brighter when in sport.

Just went out and checked mine. Brightness has no noticeable difference in "Sport" -vs- "Classic" setting, and I checked the dome light using the center button, as well as both sides for the reading lamps and all of the back seat light buttons.
