I checked for gps compass through home where you can set up a personalized screen before I had nav retrofitted.
Before I was told w/ nav retrofit the cluster wasn’t possible but are you all telling me in my 17 base Boxster I can add nav to cluster by adding 1 cable and piwis coding?
So you had NAV added after delivery by the dealer?
Regarding NAV in the 4.5" TFT, you sound like you don't believe us!
I was an unbeliever, everything I'd read said it couldn't be done, then 718socal proved it could. I not only now believe, I'm a beneficiary of his pioneering work.
I used the OEM LVDS cable Part Number 9P3-979-001. It's straight on the cluster end. Length is 730 mm. I don't know if an OBD tool like Launch or other can code the cluster. I just used PIWIS
Where did you guys get your cables? I tried an online search and didn't come up with anything.
Is it just a matter of adding Auto Time Sync to the cluster selection with PIWIS?
There is a setting in the cluster (Kombi) called GPS Urhzeit. Screen shot below. You have to add the NAV option in PIWIS and Auto Code the cluster (Kombi) module.
That is a GPS cable (Fakra "Z" Male to Male RG174 Cable) not the LVDS cable...
Westcoast, Thanks for the heads up. The ebay picture shows the same connector on both ends, is the picture is wrong? I thought RG174 referred to the wire not the connectors.

The description appears to match the picture, male at both ends, spec'd as a RG174 cable for GPS... I thought that you were looking for the LVDS cable between the cluster and the PCM?

Did the compass on line 4 just show up after your Nav install?
