vehicles with fiber optic wires

Hey all, I was just a little curious. What vehicles in the the market today has FIBER OPTIC wiring in it for data transmission, not lighting. I know right off that Mercedes and Infiniti has fiber optic wiring for either the stereo (CD changer) or cruise control. I almost thought for sure that Audi and Volkswagon had it too. If you all could reply and tell me what cars and the purpose of the fiber optic wire is used for in each car.

Thanks,

well from what i'm told teh new scion's have only one ligh bulb in them and all of the lighting is "channeled" from that bulb thru fibreoptics to the headlights, interior, instrument cluster, etc

however, i don't know how true that is, just something i was told when the car was still in the design phaze

I don't think that's right- one bulb for the whole vehicle.  That wouldn't possibly give enough light to the headlights to see at night.

sure he means the inside.

that could be possible.  Soon fiber optics are going to be in computer processors....being developed.  Scientists said they stopped light and then sent it off again.

Well, I could see one bulb for the inside, just had to clear up the overstatement.  BMW stays ahead of the competition with new technology.  I have a buddy that works for them, and he said some of their new cars come with 72 on board computers!  What a nightmare that must be to troubleshoot.  I think I'd rather stay with my car (it's much simpler).

i agree...cant work on them without a computers help nowadays.

cant beat points system on a car!
