Am I seeing a headlight adjuster wheel on a GTI with bi-xenons?

I'm looking at the little wheel next to the light switch. In my GTI the dash brightness setting is buried 6 sub menus deep in the centre console.

Worked 8am - 9pm today. Took some pics of Regina in the parking lot. I thought the empty lot and street light made a nice setting. Loving my first Euro/VW car ever.

In every vw I have ever owned going back to 1997 they always had an interior light adjustment right next to the light switch. How could cars not have that ?

Here is a better shot

Same here, mk4, mk5, mk6, right up until the Mk7.

The European built Mk7's do not have a dash brightness dial, it is a setting on the infotainment system under CAR.

I have no idea behind the logic, for a car packed with safety features it grasps me as very dangerous to adjust on the fly.
If on a motorway with no exits in sight you would just have to put up with a bright dash at night until you could safely pull over to adjust.

wow just looked again at a euro car and it's just blank space there! Can't believe out of everything we don't get they give us that switch which really comes in handy.

Must be a DOT thing over here in NA.
