ABL (ambient lighting) limited to the doors only? - Page 23 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I cant believe all this drama over some dim lights on the dash. You guys just need to appreciate the fact that GM let those that wanted, be in on the development of this car. They didnt have to do this you know. Look at all the things you guys asked for and recieved. Paint colors and other things, bunch of ungreatful people. If they are smart, this will probably be the last time they let us in during development because of some ungreatful ninnies. If your not happy, you always have the option of not buying it. But is that what this car is all about anyway, some lighting on the dash?

I agree.

The car in Dubai didnt show ambiant lighting, it was the reflection of the dome light that you saw. Ambiant lighting is only around the edges of the panels, NOT the whole panel itself being lit up.

Yeah and I guess that's why the ignition video that was on the official website for about a week got pulled off.

I am glad I have the 2SS. anyone who got it just for the ABL is overlooking all the other features they will have for the price.

You have no sense of good business practices. Either that, or you believe in communism.

I would ask that everyone who is mad about ABL only being in the doors cancel or delay their order immediately

so that I can get my car sooner.

Oh, hell. Wait till Stout finds this out.

This will be a FANTASTIC hoax puulled off if it turns out that way.

CamaroScotty? Where are you?

Alarick · 02-25-2009, 06:57 PM

Well, at least it's in there.
Either way I would not be canceling my order.

It won't take long for an aftermarket company to make an ABL dash panel that plugs into the existing ABL system, I hope...
