Does anybody else think the ambient lighting is a little cheesy, That lighting package is what made me order a 1ss. Going to order the guages and put them in myself after I get my car

Oh god no. It is one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time. Before I got the car I really didn't even know what it was. My first time in the car at night I was like WTF that is cool as shit. Then I did some reading and was like OHHHHH that's what they mean by ambient lighting. I like it. I can see how some might not. Nothing wrong at all with a 1SS. Enjoy my friend!!

No I like it. Looks really cool. There has not been 1 person that has looked at my car
that hasn't commented on how sweet the ABL is.
I could have cared less about it before. Now that I have my car, I am glad it is in there.
It really stands out.

zebra was being sarcastic. He's quite good at that at times

I actually love the idea of the Ambient Lighting so much that I replicated it in my New Yorker (since it will be a WHILE before I can get a Camaro of my own). It's not quite as cool in my car, but It's the same basic idea, and has the same effect.

i didn't know anybody still drove new yorkers! that's awesome! my friend in high school drove a '76

anyway... i know there's a few out there, but which kit did you use for your lighting & how easy was it to install? last question is how pleased are you with the quality?

I ordered a 2SS, but wish it didn't have ABL. Not sure why but I am not a huge fan of it. Oh well...

I love the lighting on the car ... makes the interior better IMO

That's the lighting on the dash, right?

after having my car for almost 2 weeks i enjoy the ABL, i think it would be nicer to have gone across the dash like originally designed but, i still enjoy it adds a little flair to nite time driving
