Default Enabling Matrix Lighting?

Curious if anyone here has tried that?

Various other subforums here have expressed universal satisfaction with "Sam" who can do it OTA, for prices that seem to vary from $600 to >$1k (with the range possibly dependent upon some combination of add'l coding requests and market conditions).
But since I already have VCDS, sure seems like I could do it myself ... if someone else has already figured out how to do it!
(Plus I'd have to buy a compatible vehicle first! I'm planning to buy an A6 Allroad -- can wait until next year, but might be tempted for this year, and the ability to enable this would be a factor. The official description on the build sheet says "Matrix-design LED headlights.")

For anyone who hasn't heard of this, discussion on model-specific forums:

The official word (or rather, several words, all of them noncommittal) from Audi USA:
