It is responsible for operating the ceiling lighting and integrates the sunroof controls, allowing the driver and passenger to intuitively operate the most important functions without taking their attention off the road.

A solution of this type is used in Mini models equipped with a sunroof, where one compact module combines lighting and control functions. This ensures a clear organization of buttons and operation that is consistent with the vehicle's factory configuration.

The panel's design includes:

• central placement of lighting control buttons,
• built-in sunroof control elements,
• a housing matched to the Mini headliner, which facilitates installation and ensures an aesthetic finish.

Thanks to the factory design, the correct mounting points and compatible connectors are maintained, which reduces the need for wiring modifications.

In service practice, such a panel is often chosen as a solution to restore:

• consistent lighting control in the front part of the cabin,
• proper sunroof operation without communication errors,
• the factory look of the headliner after replacing upholstery or electrical components.
