How do I keep the LED Drl lights on on my S3 8V with Matrix headlights?
I want my LED lights to show like the picture below, in Auto mode if possible, like they do in the dim mode but brighter

Thanks guys

PFL Vehicles did not have the option of matrix lights.

Details of the mod are in the A3 8V VCDS thread. If you don't have access to VCDS or alike then someone like myself can assist with setting this up for you.

Thanks for your reply. Yes I have a Genuine VCDS

Would you be able to advise me on how to do this mod please?

Thanks again

Again it's in the A3 8V VCDS thread, but here you go:

• 09 - Cent elect
• Adaptation
• Leuchte2SL VLB10-Dimmwert AB 2 = 100
• Leuchte3SL VRB21-Dimmwert AB 3 = 100

Just done this. Brilliant! Thank you, just a quick question, going from 30 to 100 on brightness isn't dangerous for or reducing the life of the LED is it?
Thanks

You are upping the supply, so you might shorten its life.

Is this not going to be really dazzling for oncoming cars at night? The DRL is designed to shine in all directions to be bright for oncoming cars in the daytime, whilst the xenon/matrix/halogen dipped beam is carefully designed to shine up above the cutoff as little as possible.

Mine's a PFL with xenons, but when it's pointing at the garage wall, the light above horizontal from the full power DRLs is WAY brighter than the light above horizontal once the dipped xenons are on and the DRLs have dimmed. That's the light that'll be shining into other drivers' eyes.

Obviously the xenons are much brighter than even full DRL, but it's all carefully pointed away from people's eyes.

I might put the number down to like 70 or something. 100 is really bright to be honest
