Cool Dash and Radio dimmer sensor

Hi
Does anyone know where the light sensative dimmer sensor is on the xc90 for the radio display and dashboard lights. I prefer the 'yellow on black' which only comes on in the dark so I want to cover the sensor so it is always in this mode. Does anyone have any ideas?

hello - unless it's moved on later models I believe it is the tiny square bit under the 'manual' air distribution thingies in the centre console - just above the row of switches in front of the pen holder/gear lever..

Cheers
Ian
