Description

This feature utilizes the Auto High Beam 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 IQ Light headlights that have the Light and Sight package.

This has been sought after in the NAR model Golf 8s since release.

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

 

Marking Light:

With Matrix LED Headlights, this bonus feature will be activated to turn on an extra beam to light up obstacles, pedestrians, or other hazards on the sides of the road. This allows for possible hazards to be seen more clearly at night.

 

Race Activation (Golf R Only):

This bonus feature makes the Matrix functionality extremely active while in Race or Nurburgring Drive Modes. It even activates the Matrix during lighter times of the day if vehicle is accelerating at high rates of speed.

Huge upgrade over the standard light on mk8 golf r

Huge upgrade over the standard matrix lights that are on the mk8 golf r. World of difference when driving on back roads at night. Set it and forget it.

Works great outside the city

It's the next generation of lighting we don't get in North America due to the ancient regulations, and the difference is night and day! Everything is brighter and dynamic shading works well. Must have!

Seamless Experience and Excellent Support from ACM Technik

The entire process—from researching and purchasing to online chat support and remote installation with ACM Technik LLC—was smooth and professional. Scheduling was easy, and Ryan at ACM was extremely helpful in resolving a few issues on my end to ensure the installation went through. The online information about the Golf 8 NAR Full LED Matrix Headlight Activation was clear, and I’m happy with the upgrade on my Mk8 Golf R.
