What You Get

Many Audi A4 B9 / B9.5 Facelift models (2020–2023) shipped with factory LED taillights (PR-8VM) already capable of running hidden animation profiles — they're sitting in the lamp control unit, just never enabled from factory. This VIN-specific OEM activation switches them on through a guided RetroLab Pro workflow: no manual coding, no scripts, no remote desktop sessions, and no workshop visit required.

How It Changes Behavior

From factoryon a stock A4 B9 Facelift, the LED taillights stay completely static when you lock or unlock the car — no welcome sweep, no goodbye animation, even though the hardware fully supports it.

After activationa model-appropriate animation plays across both rear lamps every time you lock or unlock the car: an S-style sweep on the Sedan, or the richer S + RS animation set on the Avant body.

  • 100% OEM integration — same animation as factory-coded S / RS A4s
  • Plays automatically on lock and unlock
  • Avant gets the full S + RS animation profiles
  • Sedan / Limousine gets the S animation profile
  • Works on EU, RoW and NAR market vehicles
  • 1-Click activation through the RetroLab Pro app
  • Guided, VIN-specific OEM activation workflow
