Interior lighting, classic/sport?

Been going through the idrive setting and I notice for the lighting there is sport/classic mode and also the brightness.

I could not see any difference between sport/classic/brightness. Am I looking in the wrong place?

It alters the LED ambient lights of the interior (roof light control panel, under the radio unit, footwell and door panels), sport gives you white light and classic is amber. I tried to play with the settings the other day and noticed those are really dim even in the brightest settings.

I didn't notice a change at first, but the lights at the footwell will always be white I believe, but the lights to change where the door handles are at.

You control the intensity of the light via the control wheel to the left of the steering wheel, but this also affects the intensity of everything lit inside the car (instrument cluster, iDrive screen etc).
