I've wondered this for most of my F150s and more recently with the bonus of FORscan. Does anyone know if the blue ambient lighting can be changed on a 2021 that doesnt have the ambient lighting option? I would assume that the standard ambient lights are just set to do the blue. Anyone looked into this?

Based on what I'm seeing on the other forum's FORScan thread, user platimun99 has been able to unlock it, however the interior LEDs are NOT multicolor, and they have had to change them out with what sounds like a prior years lights.

It also sounds like platinum99 will do a write-up on it once he's done figuring it out.

Correct. The interior switch and module lighting are single chip LED. I’m fact, I’m pretty sure my company has a lot of LED content for the interior lighting. ??

Thank you Steve for the link to the thread. Sucks that they are only single color. I would have thought to save costs that they would be a multi-color just set to blue. Oh Well!

KBKeith, what is this company with LED content for interior lighting that you speak of?....

It would be great if someone put together lighting kits for this versus having to buy all the parts individually.
