My question is that from this site it looks like there is a "instrument panel dimming" issue with a few BMWs (i have not seen a X7 owner commenting) but i wanted to ask the folks who have tinted their X7 2021 models onwards have they experienced this issue where the dashboards dims out the moment you roll up your tinted windows?
Any suggestions will be much appreciated . Thank you !

Yes. This occurs. The sensor for the ambient light is in the instrument cluster. After tinting front windows the displays are dimmer with no way to override. Open the windows and they get brighter slowly.
Unfortunate. Would be a nice mod to override.
