Ambient lighting for your Porsche: wireless, in 2 minutes
Give your Porsche a soft, premium glow at night, without wiring or a dealer visit. On current Porsche models such as the Taycan and the Cayenne from model year 2025, ambient lighting is standard, while on earlier Cayennes it was an option, so what your car has depends on model, year and equipment. If yours has none, or you want a glow in more places, wireless RGB LED lights add it in about two minutes. View the wireless ambient lighting.
- No wiring, no modifications: nothing is connected to your Porsche's electrics.
- 8 RGB colours and several lighting modes, switched with the included remote.
- USB-C rechargeable: every light has its own battery.
- Set of 2 or 4: light one zone, or the footwells and doors together.
- Fits virtually any Porsche, whatever its model or age.
1. Does your Porsche have factory ambient lighting?
What we could verify from Porsche sources (equipment differs per country and model year):
- Cayenne: for model year 2025, Porsche Cars North America lists ambient lighting as new standard equipment on the Cayenne variants; before that it was optional.
- Taycan: in its press kit for the latest Taycan, Porsche lists ambient lighting among the equipment that now comes as standard.
- Macan Electric (from model year 2024): an LED light strip in the accent strip of the cockpit and doors works as both ambient lighting and communication light; colours, zones and brightness can be set in the PCM.
- Panamera (third generation, 2023): for the first time, Porsche fits the Panamera with continuous ambient lighting along the entire dashboard panel.
Not sure what your Porsche has? A Porsche Centre can look up its factory equipment from the VIN. Where there is no ambient lighting, or only in a few places, wireless lights add 8 colours and a glow in places such as the footwells, the rear or around the centre console.
Add the ambient lights to your Porsche.
2. Where the lights look best in a Porsche
- Footwells: under the dashboard edge, pointing at the floor. In the driver's footwell, fit the light high up, well away from the pedals.
- Door pockets: in or under the door pocket, so the light washes over the door trim.
- Centre console and cupholders: along the sides of the console or under the edge of the armrest, pointing down.
- Lower edge of the dashboard: low down and pointing down, so the light falls on the surface instead of towards you.
Rule of thumb: you should see the glow, not the light itself.
Where not to place them:
- Not on or near airbags: the steering wheel, the passenger side of the dashboard, the seat sides, and the doors and pillars where side and curtain airbags deploy. Your owner's manual shows where they are.
- Not in your line of sight: not on top of the dashboard, not next to the instrument cluster or the central display, and not where the light reflects in the windscreen or side windows.
- Not near the pedals, and make sure no light can come loose.
3. Fitting in 2 minutes
- Charge: charge the lights via USB-C before first use.
- Clean: wipe the spot with a damp cloth, remove grease with a little isopropyl alcohol or a mild interior cleaner, and let it dry completely.
- Place: check the position and direction in the dark, then fix the light. On leather or Alcantara, try a hidden spot first.
- Switch on: use the remote to switch the lights on and choose a colour and mode.
As with every order, you enter your Porsche model and year in the order field. If in doubt, you can always send us a photo.
4. Questions from Porsche drivers
- Set of 2 or 4 for my Porsche? A set of 2 is enough for one zone, such as the front footwells or the centre console. A set of 4 adds the doors or the rear for an all-round look.
- How do I charge them? Via USB-C, the connector most current phones use. Charge them indoors or from a USB port in your Porsche, only while parked.
- Will they drain my Porsche's battery? No. Each light runs on its own rechargeable battery and is not connected to the car.
- Will they damage the interior? Nothing is drilled or cut and no trim comes off. Fit them on a clean, dry surface and try a hidden spot first on leather or Alcantara.
- Can I use them while driving? Keep it subtle: cabin light can reflect in the windscreen and affect your night vision. Set a calm, steady colour before you drive off and switch the lights off if they distract you. Rules differ per country, but interior light must never dazzle or distract the driver.
