You don't need ceramic for arrows on controller. I've got them but I don't have ceramic.

Mine isn't ceramic and it has arrows so it looks like everyone should have arrows.

I stand corrected, had to go take another look. Mine are very faint and had to really look to see them.

Standard kit. Colours are selectable from blue, bronze, orange, green, lilac, white, each either pure colour or with white. Fun.

So speaking of interior mood lighting, which colors everyone prefers?

Drive the majority of the time with green/green Enabled but last night switched to Lilac/white and was very nice. Gives off a very relaxing, soothing vibe.

I tend to change it from time to time, but my favourites are green/green, blue/blue and blue/white.

Bronze or orange in day light as they perfectly match the cognac interior. At night, any colour that suits the mood

White/Blue for me. I find the blue/blue too loud. Having the white on top tones it down nicely.

Blue/blue for me - hits the mocha interior and azurite exterior just right. Mrs. Lee has set her profile to white/blue.

The shifter area is not standard. Unless that's a reflection I'm looking at.

There are 2 LED lights in the overhead front and back reading/map lights cluster that reflect right above the central console and rear seat area.
