Does anyone know whether the lighting level of the seat cooling/heating LED's in the centre of the temperature rotary knobs can be changed? It's almost impossible to see, unless at night. I don't think there is any 'user' adjustment, but wondered if there may be dealer adjustments that can be made? (In a Volvo I bought 10 years ago, you could get, for example, the seat heating range changed in his way). By the way, the panel light rheostat doesn't make any difference to this.

Mine are quite clear, even in daylight. Maybe worth a trip to the dealer?

Mine too. Never have a problem reading them even in the sun with the roof down.

Just had a look at the manual and in the car. The instrument light knob, down by the boot release, does change the brightness of the figures in the dial's but the headlights need to be on for this to work. Not very smooth in operation with a bit of a delay. I've not looked at this before as they were bright enough anyway

Thanks for comments. Just to be clear, I don't mean the temperature read out itself, that is quite clear.
