What You Get

Activate the factory RS4 Matrix headlight animation on Audi A4 B9 Facelift vehicles equipped with Matrix LED headlights. Stock Matrix-equipped A4 B9 Facelift cars can play the standard Matrix startup / shutdown animation, but never the richer RS4 sequence reserved for the RS4 trim. This is a full OEM activation that swaps the standard animation for the RS4 animation — and on vehicles that were delivered without any headlight animation at all, it adds the RS4 sequence directly. The activation is performed using RetroLab Pro — no manual coding, scripts, or remote desktop session required.

How It Changes Behavior

From factoryon a stock A4 B9 Facelift with Matrix LED, the headlights either play the standard Matrix startup / shutdown animation or — on cars delivered without animation — simply switch on and off with no sequence at all.

After activationthe full RS4 Matrix headlight animation plays across the front lamps on unlock and lock — the exact startup / shutdown sequence Audi runs on factory RS4 vehicles, replacing the standard animation (or adding one where none existed), written through a proper OEM module change.
