Q7 4M Bose "Speaker Light"

[andyhud007]

Guys,

Can anyone verify this for me if you have Bose in your new Q7 (4M)

I noticed driving last night on the passenger side in the front door there is a horizontal white light strip above the "Bose" logo on the speaker grille, yet on the Drivers side there isnt. I'm not sure if its not there, or just broken?

Same in the rear cabin. There are "Bose" logos on the speaker grilles but no white light as shown in the passenger pic. Not sure this deliberate or just broken?

If you have Bose, could you check?

Thanks!

Andy

Hmm, it does say in the pricing guide - "Lighting in the Loudspeaker trims"

I believe both have the lights in...let me check later when in the car.

Reason I'm pretty sure it's both is because I remember thinking what a shame it doesn't match the Ambient Lighting strip colour...

Thanks Nemo, if you could check tonight and let me know it would be much appreciated. I'm going to take a look today outside, see if I can get the speaker grille off with my plastic pry tools, much just be a loose cable. Could you also check if the rear grilles are supposed to be lit up or not too?

Thanks!

I have the Bose and definitely there should be a strip on the drivers door. Not too sure about the rear ones. Will check back later.

Andy both front doors have the white strip lit up.

Nothing on back doors [emoji1360]

Thanks Nemo. Confirmed back doors have no light strips either on mine.

My drivers door one is defo duff. I've emailed dealer.. will see what they say. Thanks Nemo.

Probably a loose connection or dodgy led...

Does make you wonder what happens in QC stage of the build...

Fixed... Loose plug..

I have a dash cam so I went to see what it recorded while it was there. they were showing a sales guy the bird eye view all round camera... he loved that with a massive "wwwwooowwwwwww"... lol

Great stuff!

What dash cam have you got? I have a transcend in the wife's car and the wire tucks in nicely around the windscreen but can't for the life of me get it neat in the Q so looking for something else / hardwiring in
