XC60 Dashboard Lighting Colour
May be an odd question. Discussing the XC60 (which is on order and can't get here soon enough) with the missus and she asked what colour the dashboard lighting was. Was on a roll answering her questions after reading through the pdf manual from the Volvo site - but this one stumped me.
Would anyone also have pics available also? images.google.com came up blank for me. Hope its not orange like BMW - I had a BMW and never got to like the orange. Audi's blood red actually very good and got to like it. |

If it is like other new Volvo's it will be a very white green colour, very sombre. I take it the dash at night colour is a very odd requirement, make or break?
Was for my wife, red = chav in her eyes. |

The instrument dials are white, the sound system is whitish/green and the satnav can be black or blue.

It's probably just me, but how can something be illuminated in black?

As to red - most Audi's have it - use to be red all round but they started changing it so the dials are crisp white with red needles and the rest of the buttons etc were red. Actually got to like it after 4-5 Audis - the red lights up the icon/images etc and are crisp, not a red glow. Never liked the BMW orange. This is the my first Volvo - just hoped it wasn't orange. |
