It is active in Europe, but not fully active in the States. It’s simply a software, not hardware, change, When I first had coding done on my BMW by Bimmer Code, this change was just one of about 15 software changes in my code package....which cost about $150, if I remember correctly. I don’t know enough about Porsche’s system to say why this hasn’t been done before now? Maybe it’s a consumer demand / volume thing? But it really does boil down to checking, or unchecking boxes in a lengthy list of options. Super simple.

I'd be in as well. Has anyone been able to persuade...wink,wink...bribe a Porsche Service tech to fully activate their Matrix functionality?

I had "Almaretto" code my M550 for this functionality, but required more than checking an on/off if I remember correctly. Also like coding a Video in motion, not just 1 parameter that had to be changed, but many. I've used the BimmerCode app, but it doesn't allow this turn on.

If you find out it is doable, I would assume there would be many in SoCal flocking to your door!!!!! Probably would recoup some of your outlay.

Its a nice feature/option to have. When driving, I rarely look at the video, but my passengers appreciate it. I mainly play music videos.

it’s a dongle, you insert it on the Obdii for 20 seconds and activate the video in motion, after that, you remove the dongle. It’s always activated until you insert it again to remove the code.

the seller is not a sponsor here, I can’t post the link

Does he have a dongle to activate the anti-dazzle lights?
