If your car has the optional Multibeam LED headlights, you may want to check this out.

This converts your headlights to European specs. In a nutshell, it allows you to retain use of your high-beams even while overtaking or meeting oncoming traffic. I frequently drive mountain roads and it is incredible. One of my favorite mods.

The system uses the car's cameras to identify oncoming\approached cars and shields them from the high-beam glare by selectively switching-off LED's.

Not sure about your 2018, probably the best indicator would be that your beams turn when cornering.

My rationale is that the older you get, the more you need it. Wife thought it was a crazy idea, at least until we went out for a night drive. She was blown away.by the technology.

Would not be worth it if you drive primarily in well-lit urban areas as it then has limited impact. Not for everyone.

I would have opted for Distronic if I knew I could unlock these features in my region where it is turned off as default...
