Description

This feature utilizes the High Beam Assist from the vehicle and will dynamically turn off/on individual LEDs to mask oncoming drivers or drivers in front of the vehicle from being blinded. Added bonus…when turning it will throw light around the corner to light up the area ahead. It will adjust the LEDs in different conditions ie rain, highway, rural, urban, etc.

This feature was currently only available from the factory on European vehicles with the Matrix headlights.

This has been sought after in the US model Audi 8Y S3/RS3 since release.

Now you can have the function activated on your US model Audi 8Y!

 

ECE Improvement:

Want the Matrix Headlights to perform exactly as if in Europe? This will do that. It will improve upon the Matrix Activation and allow the Matrix to activate at slower speeds, react faster, more widespread low beam pattern and even make the light output greater.

This feature also includes the Orange Side Marker Deactivation.

 

Requirements:

  • 2022+ Audi S3 Prestige with Matrix headlights

Amazing

I thought this might be a waist of bread but come to find out it far from it. The “New” lights are a joy to watch and it’s so great seeing much more than I did before. Also, having my brights on all night is a game changer.

The best modification yet

I have many modifications done to my car. The most enjoyable feature yet is watching the headlights dance around and black out around other cars. It’s super fun and super cool to watch. Totally worth the money.. very disappointed that this feature is deactivated when the car comes to America.

2024 RS3 Matrix light activation

Anthony is a very cool dude! He answered all my questions and was very professional. The whole process was completed quickly and efficiently. I took my car out that night to test the lights and it was awesome! If you are having doubts about doing the activation, trust me and do it. You will not be disappointed and make sure you have Anthony do the activation for you. He does a great job and he’ll save you a ton of money! Thanks Anthony!

It was an excellent purchasing process. The cables arrived quickly, and it was easy to schedule an appointment. My AudiWorld friends spoke highly of Anthony, so I had no reservations about making the purchase.
