I also went through 360A and 360D regarding ambient light changing. There are a lot of bytes (151 bytes in 360A and 21 bytes in 360D) that can be changed. So I'm sure we can get whatever custom color we want using bimmercode expert coding, just like in esys. Only problem is I don't know which values to change to get a nice red color. That would be real nice to have.

And when you say change 90, E0, 90 to FF, 00, 00, you mean I have to change all three? So only the white option goes to red? Or is it the bronze and white, orange and white, green and white etc that turns to red? When I look, it shows bytes 3,4,5, 8,9,10, 13,14,15 as 90,E0,90. I thought that would be easier than attaching 15 screenshots here In my car, 360A starts with 00,1A,01,90,E0,90,FF,02,90,E0,90,00,03,90,E0,90,FF .....

So I did some digging online regarding hex values and how to decode/code them to get a certain color that we can use as the ambient light. I had a feeling the three different hex values were basically RGB values that could be changed to come up with a color and I wasn’t wrong.
My search brought up a post by Mitchfin in the X5 forum on how to find hex values for a certain color by visiting two different websites and using that for the color you want. I’ll quote his post below. Quote:
So yes. Anyone wanting to come up with a custom color can use the two websites above to come up with hex values and change them as per ones wishes. If this has been posted in any of the previous pages, I’m sorry for wasting your time since I have missed it somehow. This is basically to help people like me to whom hex values and stuff are like Latin, Sanskrit and Coptic. My query to jaimeen77 is. Instead of changing 90,E0,90 to FF,00,00, can I change the three sets of hex values for one of the other ones that I don’t use (like the hex values for green/green white or lilac/lilac white) instead to FF,00,00? Any insight will be appreciated.

If you need any help with Hex or RGB values then I can certainly help. I work in IT and do a bit of a graphic design.
I was planning on coding the M colours and can easily grab the hex values for these using a colour picker. I'm just wondering how we can replace one colour profile only and how you pick which one you replace. |

You need to change all 3 of 90 E0 90 to FF 00 00 , actually 90 E0 90 is very light green, but BMW set it as white. You can find how it work previous post in this thread. Quote from previous post, Original bmw rgb are - 90,E0,90 - WHITE - D7,6E,14 - BRONZE - 93,1A,01 - ORANGE - 00,20FE - BLUE - 10,FE,32 - GREEN - 78,3C,FE - LILAC Last edited by jaimeen77; 06-24-2020 at 06:35 AM.. |

I'm going to do the M colours I think which kind of screws up the bronze/white profile but I never really use that anyway. A quick glance here - BMW M Color Scheme gives the hex codes for the M logo. My thinking is replace the blue with the cyan blue in the M logo and the white for red - I think this should look quite cool - I hope so anyway! |

Yes for this question. But if you change 360D you can change this as well. 360D is start with 00 , 01 , 01,01 ,02 something like this... 00 is white and 01 is bronze. At mgu First line is white , bronze 00 , 01 Second line is bronze, bronze 01, 01 Third ... umm i dont remember, anyway you see this combination is same as 360D So you can change 6 colours and you can make 11 combinations Anyway your bmw scheme logo colors are nice, FF 00 00 is too much red.

You better check out 360D first and then list up mgu 11 combination colours.. Another hint here 00 white 01 bronze 02 orange 03 blue 04 green 05 purple Also some correction 360D is start with 01 01 01 00 02 02 02 00 00 00 03 03 03 00 04 04 04 00 05 05 05 00 Mgu First line bronze bronze 01 01 Scond bronze white 01 00 Third orange orange 02 02 Fourth orange white 02 00 Fifth white white 00 00 6th blu blu 03 03 7th blu white 03 00 8th green green 04 04 9th green white 04 00 10th lilac lilac 05 05 11st lilax white 05 00 List up mgu colours in a line then it is same as 360D |

And thank you for the replies jaimeen77. I wish there was a way to keep all the colors as is and just change the green to red and green and white to either red and white or red and blue. I guess there is no way to do that?

PS - I think I posted screenshots pf 360A hex codes in my previous post. Not 360D like I mentioned. I believe 360D is below like jaimeen77 mentioned.

If you just want to replace color to another, then you change 360A Else you also need to change combination as well, then touch 360D. Else if you want to change combination only, change 360D |

So just to clarify - 360A, change all instances of a colour to replace it completely e.g. white to red? I'm trying to work out why I would want to change combinations. My thinking is for my m style I will replace the bronze colour as I don't use it anyway with the custom blue and white with red. Therefore the bronze/white profile will now be blue/red and the standard blue/white profile will now become blue/red. It's a shame you have to replace a colour across the board and can't just replace say the bronze/white profile with blue/red only |

Huge shout-out to jaimeen77. That last post cleared up everything for me.
I finally got some time to code today and made the changes I wanted to make. Wife asked me to leave green and lilac as is since she liked it and said my daughter probably will too when she grows up and is able to distinguish colors. And bronze and orange were similar. So I thought I'd change the bronze options. I changed all three sets of hex codes for bronze (D76E14) to red (FF0000) in 360A. And I then changed the second set of bytes on 360D (01,00) to (01,03) so that the ambient light becomes blue (where it was white originally) and red (where it was bronze originally). Needless to say, I love it and it's my new favorite ambient lighting color. My wife loves it too. I tried taking a few pics but my phone cannot seem to capture the red on the door strips as well as dashboard strips (appears bronze-ish in photos when it's actually a pure bright red). Another thing is. I believe I read a post before where someone said the two spot lights near the dome light doesn't change color and remains the same as the original light in the idrive dash (bronze in my case). But in my car, that light also changes to red.

Thanks for the help guys I was able to replace bronze with red and the "bronze and white" with a red and blue. Was a little confusing at first but not as hard as I thought it would be.
