Search the site using "VIM" and "vehicle in motion". There were instructions soon after the C7 was sold.

Enabling VIM will require a VCDS cable and Vag-Com software.
Note that while there is no question a driver trying to watch a video while driving is dangerous (and illegal in most states in the US), there are some valid uses. For example, listening to music videos or for a front passenger to watch a video. I have VIM enabled for the first reason, nevertheless, very rarely do I use it.
