Anthony activated the digital matrix headlight on my Q8 etron. He was punctual to our meeting, walk me through the whole process and did in a timely fashion. Highly recommended!
Amazingly quick and simple, just make sure to have a good internet connection or cell service! Yes this can be done through your phone! These guys are the shit!
I recently told my bank that they could go pound sand, and that I was sick of dealing with them. Now I send all of my money to ACM Technik, and I wouldn't change a thing. Sure, my house is going to be foreclosed, but my car literally stays in its' lane, all by itself. (Wish I could say the same for Dave at PNC 😤)
When I bought my North American Golf 8 R, I was disappointed to find out that the IQ Matrix headlights were not the same as the European ones but after getting this coding modification, the Matrix headlights have greatly improved over what they previously used to be able to do. I want to thank Anthony and his team at ACM Technik for finding an alternative solution to this dilemma instead of having to spend over $5000 for the European IQ Matrix headlights retrofit.
Ryan was very patient and informative before and during the activation process. The Matrix activation is one of the best mod you can get for your car. It's fantastic how much you can see at night without blinding other car! I really love it!
It even comes with a lifetime warranty if the dealer ever remove the function.
Great customer service from all the team at ACM Technik.
Installed earlier today and seems to work without issue. But I did want to add some extra details to assist others with installation.
If you unhook the battery without engaging the steering wheel lock, it won't engage. If you can park on a relatively smooth surface, it isn't too hard to turn the wheel without power steering.
1. Cycle the ignition, put the steering wheel into the first position (see their videos). Turn off the vehicle without engaging the lock (get out without turning the wheel at all).
2. Unhook the negative terminal, its a 10 mm. I like to wrap the harness size with a towel to make sure it won't get bumped back on.
3. Go back to the car and unhook the left and right airbag clips. The access hole is really close to the bottom of the wheel. You only need to do the two sides, the bottom will just hinge and fall out.
4. I don't unplug the airbag itself, just set it out of the way. Free the wiring from below the aluminum part of the wheel. Lift the back portion of the module and push it backwards to get it out.
5. Swap parts and re-assemble in the reverse order.
