Default Navigation color switch

I was recently driving an ES loaner with navigation and at night, the navigation would invert its color. As in the screen would be black and the streets would be white as opposed to during the day the screen would be white and the streets would be black.

Is there a way to do this on our 2IS? i have a 2006 is350 if that matters and i just bought the new 9.0 navigation dvd

You need to dim your illumination ****. Click it to the left once, and your navi will turn dark when its night.

it should already do this by default. your settings must be set on daytime mode instead of auto. it should change when ur headlights come on

exactly like everyone else said, to turn the **** just before it clicked. the only bad part is now my dashboard is not as bright as it can go

I have a 2011 IS350, using Techstream would I be able to change the infotainment color to be permanently black instead of only turning from white to black when it’s dark outside?
