I don't know if this has been covered before but is there a way to activate the welcome home and leaving feature with the head lights?!!

I've read that it can't be done but I've seen folk on YouTube with it and I want it on my polo se .... If possible ha

I emailed HazzyDayz Ltd a few weeks ago and they will have a product available in 3-4 months.

That's a long time

Did you ask about auto lights ?

Yup includes auto lights.

tempting but does it involve removing the windscreen at your expense

Its because the standard windscreen has a darkened area around the rear view mirror as a sort of sun shield. The sensor can't see through this to see if its dark or not so you need to replace the screen with one that doesn't have this darkened area.

I have auto wipers and this includes the sensor built in, so hopefully it will just need a different headlight switch and reprogramming. The sensor is the same as fitted to my Golf which has auto lights and wipers.

having another look it sounds like you need a replacment screen

http://www.vwcruise.com/121.html maybe i do without

At worse I'd hope for a new mirror sensor an switch

More useful IMO would be headlights that came on automatically in the dark (tunnels, dusk etc.) My Polo already has some sort of light detector as the control panel dims in reduced light - reminding me to put the headlights on manually. This would be great done automatically...

The Auto lights feature which is included works like this.

if your that keen for autolights a kit like this solves the problem cheaply
