C5 X7 ambient lighting (and some other bits and pieces)

Well you should have it fitted as you have an exclusive....

Yeah that's weird.... I have everything else except that. I'll check both doors properly again. But from what I saw nothing is in the hole. I'm puzzled tbh.

Mine's an Exclusive and hasn't got the door pocket lights.

I think it's one of the things that got left off on the (very minor) facelift at the same time as the 163hp engine came along.
The ambient lighting on the dash went at the same time.

It's possible they went on a cost cutting exercise, but I had it all on my 2009 Exclusive with full leather.

Mine isn't full leather, it's half. I'll pop a donation soon and let you run my vin, curious to see if it came with it.

Will do, cheers Marc. Pleasure to help.

A bit of bodgerification should see lights in the door pockets.

I have been meaning to put floor lighting in, like I had in the Volvo 265.
One day perhaps.

Not a big deal for me really. Car has a ton of interior lights anyway

Now I have another question, the sun visor light that turns on when you reveal the mirror. The driver side one works, the passenger side doesn't, it doesn't light up. I changed the bulbs but still doesn't work. What could that be? Maybe a blown fuse or something?
