2019 TLX - No option to change the AcuraLink / Infotainment Color Theme?
This may seem like an odd request--but I have a 2019 A-Spec, SH-AWD and I cannot figure out how to change from the gray-blue theme. It's driving my OCD up the wall with polished reds, titanium and black everywhere, and the antiquated screens are blue. All pictures on the official Acura site show the theme in black.

Annoying

example from the Acura site:

my whole system is the color of the close button in this image

The System Settings->Background Color->[Blue/Amber/Red/Green] option under Settings was one of the features oddly dropped for the 2018 MMC.

It's blue whether you like it or not.

Damn. I was hoping there might be some secret setting somewhere. Curious as to the reasoning behind it.

Thanks!

Frustrated
I had the same questions when I recently purchased my 19’ ASpec AWD. It was driving me crazy for the first 24 hours trying to change out the color theme.

Thanks for the updates.

I am guessing due to the head unit refresh they decided not to waste resource coding and doing QA on something they will be around less than 2 years. Also I suspect 95% of the people left it on the default blue theme. And while I left it on blue I was tempted to make it red for the ASPEC which would have reminded me more of my old Type-S so it is a shame they dropped at least the red option.

Same with me. Just got a 2019 SH AWD Advance. One of the first questions I had was how to change the color. It cannot be changed. The new screen is nice - I wish I could make the detailed information for music (album art, etc.) the default setting tho. Have to tap it each car re-start.
