Genesis G80 RG3 Ambient Lighting Upgrade
The Genesis G80 RG3 is a flagship luxury sedan, but its factory ambient lighting often leaves owners wanting more. While the stock system includes basic illumination in the door handles, storage pockets, and parts of the dashboard, the coverage is limited, and the brightness is insufficient to create a truly immersive mood lighting experience. This often leads G80 owners to seek aftermarket solutions to enhance their vehicle's interior ambiance.
Glowmotion System for Enhanced Interior LED
At O-Day Car, we specialize in elevating the G80's interior with the Glowfactory's Glowmotion moving LED system, combined with custom-molded trim pieces. This premium package offers a significant upgrade over the factory setup. The core installation includes ambient lighting for the front and rear doors, as well as the dashboard. Optional additions like footwell lighting, door handle illumination, door cup lights, upper dashboard accents, and gear shift area lighting can further customize the look. A key feature is the seamless integration with the vehicle's infotainment system, allowing for intuitive control directly from the car's display.
Installation Process:
- Dashboard Illumination: We replace the factory dashboard lighting with our high-output LED system, ensuring consistent light diffusion and superior brightness for a noticeable difference.
- Custom Dashboard Center Line: For the long dashboard center line, where factory integration is lacking, we craft bespoke trim pieces. These are meticulously shaped to fit the G80's interior contours, hiding wiring and ensuring the LED light spreads evenly for a cohesive look.
- Door Components: The door handles are upgraded with new LED-illuminated units. Optional door cup lighting is also installed, extending the lighting theme across the entire door panel for a unified, lounge-like atmosphere.
- Gearbox and Console Lighting: The area around the center gear shift and console is finished with custom molding. This intricate work ensures the lighting extends consistently, enhancing the driver's cockpit with a sophisticated glow, especially during nighttime drives.
The result is a dramatically transformed interior. The enhanced brightness and extended coverage of the ambient lighting create a luxurious and personalized atmosphere, turning the G80 into a true statement of refined driving. The custom molding ensures a factory-fit finish, making the upgrade appear as if it were originally intended for the vehicle.
