OEM should only have 2 colors, orange and white.

Perhaps you can take a loot at Taobao for more color options.

The ambient lights only have Orange LEDs and White LEDs, so that's all you can choose. If you want to go with additional colours, you'd need to remove your existing ambient lights and install new strips with Red/Green/Blue LEDs.

Unless someone already makes multi-colour strips, it would be difficult to do the swap without looking very amateurish.

I think he thinks it’s like a X5 where there are more light options by coding.

That’s not possible!
