ID8 Ambient lightning behind the screen.

Has anyone made a modification to install ambient lighting behind the iDrive 8 display? I have drawn a line on the pictures to illustrate what I mean.

I think it might get too annoying at night no matter how much you can dim it down but it does look cool, I have a left over sunroof light strip that might work there I知 gonna see if it can fit and if the wiring can be tucked away nicely this week

I was just thinking about this today. I really want to do it but I need to figure out the right LEDs and how to hide the wiring/where to wire it into.
