I leave for work at 0500 so there's very few other cars out in the middle of nowhere where I live. However, my road down the mountain I refer to as The Gauntlet due to the out of control deer population. The LED headlights are fantastic by themselves. The glare-free lets them stay on and keep lighting up what's around me even when I have a rare oncoming vehicle in the morning. The 10 seconds high beams would normally be off is when 6 deer will just casually stroll out into the road.

I find it most noticeable on the highway. The left and right ditches light up well and you right side does it's game with signs. Corners on the highway are where it is the most fun as you watch the black box move around following the car in front of you.
This is one my favorites as well. Can have a road full of traffic in front of you and oncoming. And everything around out into the shoulder is still brightly lit.

You should also have the Green colored headlight indicator with a "A" in the middle on the lower left of your center screen. If you have the green indicator and toggle button, you likely did it correctly.
I triple checked and I missed a 3rd column number in the HCM module. Didn't realize there was 2 items. I did not have the icon in the dash so something had to be wrong.
I drove around my neighborhood at twilight and noticed much more light on the sides and ahead. Also more movement when turning.
I didn't notice notice any difference when a car came toward me but it wasn't totally dark. I will see on the way to work. Thanks for your help.

I am one of the few people who actually saw a benefit from swiveling headlights years ago and these matrix lights are fantastic evolution. Canadian trucks had them enabled from the start and I absolutely love them.
I wish all Canadian trucks had them. My 23 XLT does not.

I also wish the Mongoose cable wasn't so stupidly expensive.
