    Post Matrix LED Headlight Activation Information...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    With the advent of new technology comes the unfortunate side effect of regulations that do not allow North American owners to have the full functionality of what that their car can offer. Luckily there are ways to activate items that are not generally available for the North American market and one of the most useful and advanced are the full matrix high beams that so many new Audi models come with but do not function in North America. These can now be activated along with some other lighting functions depending on your model and factory fitted equipment:





    • Genuine Audi OE Software + Parameters
    • Full Matrix LED High Beam Functionality
    • 50 Meter Highway Light Carpet Functionality (if applicable)
    • Exterior Door Handle Maneuvering Lighting (if applicable)
    • All Factory Systems Stay Fully Functional
    • No Wiring or Physical Installation Required
    • Remote Calibration Included
    • VAS Clone Interface Included
    • Instructions for Software Installation Included

    Information:
    A little disappointed with your matrix LED headlights only acting like standard LED headlights? This package has the tools and software coupled with a remote session to activate the full matrix LED and/or laser headlight functionality for your North American model to get the most out of your headlights. This only works with models that have factory fitted matrix LED headlights. Not sure how matrix high beams function, please take a moment to watch the video above.

    Highway Light Carpet - For e-tron (excl. GT), Q8 e-tron, SQ8 e-tron, A8 and S8 owners with digital matrix an additional 50 meter long highway carpet functionality is available that also shows the width of the vehicle in hash marks so you can stay in your lane safely.

    Maneuvering Lighting - For 2019+ A6, S6, RS6, A7, S7, RS7, A8, S8, Q7, SQ7, Q8, SQ8, RSQ8, e-tron, Q8 e-tron, SQ8 e-tron, e-tron GT models with exterior door handle illumination these can also add maneuvering lighting which activates the door handle illumination around the vehicle in reverse for added lighting when it's dark outside.

    Confirming Fitment:
    If you are unsure if these product applies to your model please contact and supply your VIN so you can be informed if this applies to your vehicle: [email protected]

    Ordering:
    Ordering is completed through the website with the product link above. A VAS interface will be sent out for your purchase or rental depending on your selection. VAS rentals are supplied with a UPS return label (*note that VAS rentals are only available within North America). Instructions are included for setting up the remote session which can take as little as 15 minutes but can take longer for 2024 models which require additional work to activate.

    In the event that a future dealership visit removes the full matrix functionality this can be re-activated at no labor cost. The VAS interface is required for re-activating after a dealership visit that removes this functionality so it can be beneficial to purchase that interface for future use. If you choose to rent the VAS interface a deposit will be held until the interface is returned within 15 days of departure to your location. Once the interface is returned the deposit will be voided.

    Recently Frequently Asked Question:

    Q. Am I being charged $300 for renting the VAS interface?

    A. No, only a $300 deposit is being taken on checkout and held for the VAS interface rental. When the VAS interface is returned after your rental the $300 deposit is voided completely.


    Hopefully that clears up any questions on the rental deposit.

    Audi is moving to a stricter security protocol which some of you have already run into this while trying to code simple things on your 2024 models. Due to this stricter protocol we have been preparing so that the activation service and other remote procedures are never interrupted.

    We have moved away from the venerable, tried and true VAS5054A interface to the more advanced DoIP capable VAS6154A interface. These new VAS6154A interfaces will make activations faster plus after quite a bit of testing and sorting all of these interfaces that come with your order from Europrice will be fully updated to handle the newest SFD2 security protocols which are coming soon.

    This means new activations and any re-activations for current customers will occur without skipping a beat when the newest security protocols are put into place, plus shorter activation times!

    Don't get caught out with the wrong or non updated equipment that won't be able to activate everything that you want or even anything at all when SFD2 is fully implemented.

    Are you using ODIS-E to make this modification?

    It looks like the process is to craft a custom XML for the vehicle and use this with ODIS-E to flash the data to the car. Very interesting. I wish the C7 cars in NA came with "non activated" matrix lighting!

    Since the number of models and model specific options has grown a fair amount each group will now have their own dedicated page for information regarding matrix activation. This will hopefully reduce any confusion as to what options, if any, apply to each model.

    As an added benefit for the Q4 models the pricing has also been brought down from $699 to $599 since this activation is not as labor intensive as other larger chassis models that have added options!
