What You Get

Audi Q5 and SQ5 FY models (2021–2023) with factory LED taillights (PR-8VG or PR-8VM) ship with the dynamic indicator routines and the S-style lock/unlock animation already present in the lamp control unit firmware — but disabled in the configuration at delivery across all markets, including US and Canadian vehicles. This VIN-specific activation enables both functions in a single guided workflow inside RetroLab Pro, with no manual coding, no scripts, and no remote desktop session required.

How It Changes Behavior

From factoryon a stock Q5 / SQ5 FY, the rear LED turn indicators flash as a single static block, and the taillights stay completely still when you lock or unlock the car.

After activationthe rear taillight indicators sweep outward from the inner edge to the outer edge in a single fluid motion, and an S-style animation runs across both rear lamps every time you lock or unlock the car.
