I've been playing with some builds in the configurer, and it seems like the ambient lighting is always fixed at that blue shade when viewing your build.

That color doesn't go great with some of the interior color combos, so it would be awesome if they would let customers change the ambient lighting color in the configurer to get a better idea of your build. Similar to how they let you change the background and times of day.

I have the oak green, green/black seats, summer wood accents, and that blue light looks so bad. I'd love to change it to one of these to match the color choices.

Is that possible to do in the configurer? If not, they should definitely let folks do that.

I've seen a few videos on YouTube that show the options I mentioned with the green ambient lighting on, and it looks great, but it's just a few seconds of footage.

Just to clarify, I know you can choose the lighting in the car, but I mean in the configurer view to preview how it would look.

You'll be pleased to learn that there are at least ten options or more on the ambient lighting

Yep. I know. They look amazing!

I meant I wanted to change the color on the website when using the configuration tool to see how the different leather colors and door inlays would look with various ambient lighting

But the configuration tool just shows the blue ambient lighting

That would be handy, but I have to admit that it wasn't even a thought for me when configuring the car, so I guess it would take too much programming for a lesser used online feature. What I do wish they would do was better match the ambient lighting to the range of exterior and interior colours. I have Provence with Blackberry leather, but there's no purple ambient lighting option. I've ended up with the grey/off white shade as nothing else really works.
