You retrofitted led lights?
Or you have them since manufacture of your car?

If since manufactre, it is there, you do not have to "retrofit" anything..

I will make a pic for you tomorrow morning. And change language to english ;)

I think nobody knows what is "Sensitivity" setting for?!

I think it is the sensitivity for AUTO setting. It's how much light is needed before switching from/to DRL

Why would you not have coming\leaving home lights on???

And as said the sensitivity is to set how light or dark it is for the lights to switch auto on or off. :)

I don't have coming home lights on as I park in our driveway facing a house across the way and never like to blind them more than I have to.

I thought the sensitivity was for high beam assist.

But then if it's there and you don't have that option then maybe not.

Well, three main reasons:
1. I do not want to show others how high is my car specification. I also do not have "Leon" & "FR" badge on the back, I use very rare mirrors folding. Security reasons. Want to have as less possible identification as possible.
2. I do not need to keep light. I live in the city, on the street is enough light in the night.
3. I don't like the way how it works. When you switch off engine, your light goes off, DLR stays. Then when you lock, lights goes on again. ?!?? The same when entering car - after unlocking lights goes on, then off and finally stays DLR only or goes lights on again. It is a bit mess... :rofl:

And what is the settings?
Medium is for medium light - perfect naming. :D
And other setting? Which is for more darker and more lighter conditions?

No, I do not have high beam assist.

Mine come on when I open the door and stay on after I lock it for the set amount of time. Similarly mine stay on when I unlock it until I turn the ignition on (unless the set time elapses).

Can't see what's wrong with that.

Sod the neighbours, I love my car lighting up when I lock and unlock it!! lol
+1. I would rather see where I'm going than worry about momentarily blinding the neighbours, because A. They shouldn't be so fkn nosey B. Curtains. Close them. C. I don't like them anyway. There is another, easier option. Park the other way round. :D and if that means you are pointing at another house, just alternate it. That way you can pi55 two lots off instead of just one... :p

If I would live at the village/not too crowded place with no street lights, maybe I would use it.

But in the city I preffer more "inkognito" behaviour.
For example, I do not like that you can't wait in a car with turned on motor (in winter you need to heat) and switched off lights. Still just with front DLR or with a bit darker parking lights, but in this mode rear lights are turned on as well.. I really miss to turn them completely off. Possible just with switched off engine.

slamka thanks for picture.
BTW you can switch the DLR completely off as longest your handbrake will be on

Parking the other way would mean my headlights lighting up my garage door from about 1 foot away, also not worth it.
I also have a street light at the front of our house.
As others said, if I lived in a darker area then I would use it.

Really? Even on manual transmission? Does it need any setting via car settings?
I have never noticed it, but to be honest, I use handbrake very rarely. Have to test it!
It would be great if it works.
