An ambient lighting system for automobiles serves to illuminate at least a portion of a passenger compartment and includes a plurality of light guide modules, interposed between the light sources and said contact surface, adapted to guide light rays emitted by light sources and being designed to isolate the light rays to realize sector, blocks or regions adapted to be illuminated with very sharp contrast with the rest of the ambient lighting system. The ambient lighting system also includes at least one integrated touch sensor that is adapted to detect touch of said contact surface by an user's body portion in at least one defined region, and an actuator system for generating haptic feedback for the user.
