Question Enabling day time running light for 08 A4

Hey gents,
I'm new to the forum, I just bought a 08 A4 s-line, I get in a few weeks but I am in Canada and i need to enable the DTR lights, can i do this myself or do i need to go to Audi and get them to do it? It costs around $400 so any help would be much appreciated,
thanks

get a vag-com cable and do it yourself. Plus having it will be handy if you ever get a CEL or any other issues you can find out the problems yourself + you can find one cheaper then $400.

Getting a cable isnt a bad idea but as an alternative, hook up with someone who already owns a cable and have him do it for you. Typical cost ... a beer or coffee !

This may be a dumb question, but you need to ''enable'' the dtr lights function with a cable so that they can function? Isn't this already enabled?
