Well it isnt new, sorry if i confused you, its just that the second dimmer roll had gone missing for soo long and no one had confirmation on how to turn it on, or if it would be dimmable, but i asked today and it was confirmed that we would get a 2nd dimmer roll, i hope that helps

And yes, there is a real photo of the new abl, but apparently this one was not completely finished as well, but a good representation. Will look better at night Name: SI850102.jpg

Jeeze, you guys want your dashboards to have lights so bad, just cut some holes in it and screw in some light bulbs.

but that requires work. we're Americans!

So wait, it's a really thin light beneath the acrylic piece on the door?

TJ91 · 03-03-2009, 08:50 PM

Basically, but it will look better in person, it will glow more at night too. So more or so what you just said

A second dinner roll? Is that any butter than just one?

Thanks for the info!

No porblemo
Yes it is better because then you adjust the brightness of the ABL all on its own without having to adjust the brightness of your gauges and other lighiting

And that is the type of work that makes me cringe

Is this the best picture of the current ambient lighting on the doors only that we have? No night shots? This does not convince me at all of why I should get a 2SS over the 1SS. The cloth doors are looking better and better to me..

Redwolf20 · 03-04-2009, 12:10 AM

Folks are actually only looking at the 2SS/2LT for its ABL over other trims? You're kidding right?

Oh man, the sky is falling..Help us.

In all seriousness, I was simply asking what the official announcement was because I really didn't want to skim thru all these pages...I had and still have a major work related headache and could have used some good news. I guess I'll take getting my 1SS with cloth panel trim as good news..Now I'm just contemplating wether to get all black interior in cloth or the two tone grey..

My only question for anyone that may know, will the cloth panels be the same grey color with either the cloth black or the cloth grey?? If I get a black 1SS cloth interior, do the panels come in black cloth?? This is a really important and deciding factor perhaps in my ordering confessional mess I am currently in.. Don't get me started on being confused about the colors since today I saw an inferno orange metallic Hummer and it looked amazing from a distance. However it was very bright and sunny and outdoors and I do believe with that color comes all sorts of tickets vs the blending in cyber grey..
