So...if I have the cable to connect the cluster to the PCM, he could possibly code it so the map-in-cluster feature would also work? Forgive me if I'm overly simplistic, as I've said programming is a dark science to me.

Yes it is that simple.

Should I install the cable prior to the coding or can it be coded and the cable added later?

@718socal
Great write up

Maybe you can help with understanding the coding you did in PIWIS.
All 5F related coding could be also done by M.I.B or included into this new solution:
https://mibwiki.one/share/30b7c0f9-a...1-20f4309ef4bb

MHI2_US_POG11 for now, but EU and POG24 should also follow soon.

Fakra cables - LVDS cable part number 9P3-979-001 - can be found a bit cheaper on ALi:

Fakra type Z is universal and fits in all connector.

I wish MIDDLE East map is included on the repo.

My 2018 Cayman Base came with Connect and wired CarPlay, but not Nav. I used the MIB process to activate both Nav and wired Android Auto, then updated the maps to current. I did not care about connecting the cluster, so no need for PIWIS. Works great.

I would install it after you get your PIWIS coding done. I don't know anyone who can do the PIWIS remotely so you will have to find a shop or someone local.

They are independent of each other. I had Track Precision App working without NAV first and with NAV now.

Question is, if coding is just 5F or also cluster.
5F could be done by M.I.B.

You deserve all the credit because without your support, this would not have been possible. Thank you again.
I first added the NAVI to VO and Automatically coded all the modules.
Most of the PIWIS coding is done in Kombi to enable all the menus and settings in the instrument cluster.
If I use the MIB tool and remove one feature like Tel or LTE, the PIWIS will not see the head unit module. The diagnosis Variant will display ZR_INVALID.

Someone needs to share their map and put in the repository. 😁
