Default Most dealers...
will program this for free one time (usually at delivery) Another option is to not have horn sound when locking doors.

Default For some reason VW's don't allow the reprogramming of the window functions that Audi's do so this
is a good item for the VW crowd.

Default My dealer outright refused to do this,
claiming unspecified "safety issues." I have heard that if you do program this, it deactivates the pressure sensor that stops the window from closing if there's an obstruction (like your arm), but I can't verify that.

Default Tell your dealer you won't stick your head out the window
while rolling up the window. Also, they can put safety warning on your car for the techs.

Default Ask your dealer to program the pressure sensor in the doors. Just in case (not you) a dumb@ss
closes the door on his own arm.
