Although heavily advertised by Polestar and even imprinted on the front headlights, the famous Pixel headlights are not actually enabled in the North American market even though I often see them listed as a feature on used models.
Pixel headlights are ‘enabled’, what is not enable is the Adaptive High Beam feature. Polestar has also publicly stated on its own forum site many times that their suppliers says that because of the NHSTA requirements for the US that a hardware change is required. Your pixel headlights are used for nor/auto high beams and the feature where the lights bend right/;eft when turning (and the starting your car animation.)
Enabling via OrBit is actually against the law in the US.
It is absolutely not against the law to change with Orbit, it is illegal for a manufacturer to SELL a car with those features that are not approved by the DOT, but it is not illegal to change or modify your own car.
