That's a mounting point where the screw #5 goes.

only works when the lights are in auto, parking lights or low beams, tho, but better than nothing. Hope y'all have tried that. If you do not want to run low beams, just drive with parking lights on (5). Everything should be illuminated incl. tail lights which is safer than the DRL mode. I didn't pay much attention, but did not have problems with the cluster when I was driving the car.

I am currently renting a base Dodge Challenger, car has lots of issues but it has a very clear center screen that can be configured for a digital speedometer, you can also configure to see oil temp, pressure, coolant temp, transmission temp etc. It seems that every car on the market has an LCD screen in the center of the cluster than can be configured to at least see basic information and have a digital speed readout. I don't understand why BMW isn't doing this. I don't need a dial for my speedometer at all, its a terrible way to read the speed and there is nothing mechanical any longer in the speedometer so I really hope they get this area together.

They could have made the numbers as big as the digital read out area, as with most cars that have that option.

I have no issue with my MY2017: the dials are retro lit as soon as I go to darker environment with the headlights in Auto-mode.

Just today I went under a large canopy of trees. Not quite dark enough for the system to turn the illumination on, but much too dark to be able to see the instrumentation, especially since it was a sunny day otherwise and I was wearing sunglasses. |
