We offer a solution for this - we can either supply extra bright bulbs for the existing light or create you a plug a play additional light to go on the opposite side of the boot.
We have now completed over 25 multicolour retrofits to 100% OEM standards between us and our partners Audi Upgrades.
Please get in touch with us if you are interested, we will be looking into the centre console multicolour lighting which is on the FL 8Y so watch this space :-)
These can be changed however it does require a bit of work to change the colour of them - we have done this before on a customer's 8Y however most customers tend to go for the full multicolour lighting retrofit - drop us a message and we can see what we can do for you - we're not far from you...
We supply wiring kits to allow these lights to be added, all our kits are designed and made by us in the UK and require no soldering.

That piece of trim is clipped in and will have been purposely removed as it would be impossible for it to drop down by itself.
The only time the trim would need to be removed is for access to the body control module connectors.
All 8Y's we have worked on have had this trim piece fitted...
Having carried out a number of retrofits on 8Y's and Golf 8's there is a significant difference in build quality and materials between the 2. The 8Y is much better in comparison to the Golf 8 on many areas, quality of the plastics, quality of the clips and fixings, and the way the trim panels...

You need to get onto a flat straight piece of road and try it - all new cars will be set within a tolerance, personally if you want it spot on then you are best taking it to a place who specialises in alignment - places like center gravity in nuneaton, I have taken a number of my vehicles here...
If you have the multicolour lighting then you have the full ambient lighting package - there should be an option for you to turn the footwell lighting on whilst in motion to give you some more background lighting.

We've this weekend just completed another QQ2 (multicolour upgrade) from QQ5.
Tiny cracks in the leathers sadly something that you will have to live with, we do steering wheel retrims and have done for many many years, as leather is a natural material there will be imperfections and no 2 pieces of hide is the same therefore on some retrims there are more marks on others...
A customer of ours brought his S3 2023 to us for ambient lighting retrofit and had creases in his passenger seat, raised it with the supplying dealer and they replaced the cover on the seat, made it a little bit better but wasn't perfect.
