Do I have welcome illumination?

Just bought CX5 2.2D 175PS Nav AWD on a 63 plate, ex demo car with one or two extras that I have identified. There are two slightly pathetic circular red LEDs in the front footwells which operate with the interior light. Do I have 'welcome illumination'?

The amount of light they emit is pitiful, and nothing like the angry red glow shown in the brochure.

My dealer is 400+ miles away (went a long way to source the right car!) so I can't pop in to check.

Thanks!

Mine's a 2012 model, so that wasn't even an option then. However, I've got used (in general) to Mazda stuff not matching up to sales specifications or expectations, so I wouldn't be surprised...  ::)

Glad I didn't pay for it myself then. The LED daytime running lights and illuminated scuff plates the demo also has are quite fun, but I'd never have specified them myself either. All in all though, very happy on day 3 of ownership..!

had illum scuff plates fitted transforms the look when you open car door,
going for mud flaps and welcome illum and rear bumper step plate this month.

illuminated scuff plates are nice, but trust me the welcome illumination is not worth the coin.
