    How do I turn my engine bay lights on?

    Hi guys, my R8 came today and it's beautiful, Black with custom phantom black side blades, and black leather with cream insets, I've had alot of fun driving it around, getting used to it, haven't given it the beans yet but don't worry i will! My only problem at the moment is I can't figure out how to turn the engine bay lighting on as I haven't received the handbook yet, any tips would be really appreciated, thanks.

    Needs the coming home lights switch on in DIS and the little button by the light switch turned on. Or, you can just turn on the interior light ;-)

    Congratz on getting it. Hope you really enjoy it. Also edit your profile and enter a location (even a general area). There are some car differences from country to country.
