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 !

Yup. I had this issue with mine when I tinted my windows. I posted about it a few months ago. I tested the issue by shining a small book light on the dash and it immediately brightened up, same as when I roll my windows down. I decided to not remove the tint because my eyes have adjusted to it, although I might feel differently in the winter months when I can't roll the windows down due to inclement weather. I'll take a two pictures to show the difference in a few mins.
