I went with open-pore oak. If I could I would have brushed aluminum like in my previous car. I like the look of carbon, but I hated the piano black surface that is standard in the center console in the G30, and carbon looks just as glossy to my eye...
Too bad the aluminum-style mesh stuff looks like cheap wraps or something...

It seems that when you are trying to remove the module that it isn't going to detach from the strip. As well as the black clip on the trim there are also two tiny interference parts to the lighting optic strip. Keep gently levering with a flat screwdriver and the module will come away from the lighting strip! |

Top picture was after the install. Originally installed during day time but then notice there was dim or no light.
Bottom is after swapping both white and purple modules from my stock trim. Didn’t believe that it came I coded at first, but now it makes sense. Thanks to everyone with this guide. Lifting the large black clip and then using a tiny pick tool to lever back and forth definitely worked. Last edited by m340ninja; 11-11-2022 at 01:47 AM.. |

Yes, you need to lift up on that large black clip and then wedge a small flathead or small pick tool. The end of the tool should touch and then use it as a level to push back away from the led strip. Yes, when it comes out it sounds like something is breaking but it’s not. Those plastic ends are deeper than they look.

After replacing any of these LEDs(like that on the new trims) you should also perform the LED light addressing test plan so the control unit relearns all the LEDS. This may fix your issue without having to swap the LED over from your old parts.

Is this something a DIY’er can gear up for, or is a dealer visit absolutely required? I have been playing with the LEDs in my G42 and realized they are somehow addressed or what not, and you cannot simply just plug whichever ones or replacement ones in wherever you want and have them work.

If someone has access to the procedure, how involved is it? Can I try to work with an independent shop to get it done? My experience with dealers for issues like this is that they don’t get solved there. |
