I know for a fact that NM Auto first gen unit has dynamic lines AND Park Distance diagram for a manual 991.1. I sent a video to someone requesting it. My guess is their gen2 wireless unit does too and I assume if the manual car has the lines and PDC, then the PDK car should too.

According to ZZ support, depending on what equipment is installed, some manual cars have the data for park distance on the CanBus, and some don't. If it is there, they will display it, but if it isn't, they don't. It might be worth checking with Nick if he agrees, but I don't have his contact info.

Hmmmm perhaps if your car doesn't have the BOSE or Burm stereo that uses MOST network to transfer music data and probably other data than your unit may not get those digital data signals, so this is very possible. Cars with the Base Level audio DO NOT have a MOST digital network connection to an external amp, which probably means the PCM doesn't sit along the MOST network so it's not getting that data feed.

Are all the PCM functions working normally in all respects - including does the PCM display dynamic reverse camera lines - when the PCM is in native mode (CarPlay not activated)? If so, it seems the PCM is getting all the CAN bus and whatever other data it’s supposed to and if it’s not working to show dynamic reverse lines in CarPlay mode then the fault would seem to lie with the CarPlay adapter.

I posted based only on what I read from the links you posted. Suncoast says the Aftermarket Radio Installation Kit "Fits cars with the base audio system, NOT compatible with BOSE or Burmester Sound Package." As for the Kenwood head unit itself at the other posted link, for that to work with BOSE it would have to output its audio as an optical digital signal that's coupled to the BOSE amplifiers via the car's MOST fiber-optic network. I didn't see anything on the website for the Kenwood unit indicating it does that. Rather, the specs page for the Kenwood head unit show it's got conventional analog outputs including on board power amps (4x50 watts) and 3 preouts. Crutchfield, by the way, indicates the ddx9903s head unit is discontinued.
I think something like this might be able to work with BOSE if the pre-outs could be converted to fiber-optic digital signals compatible with the BOSE system. This box (or something like it) might be able to do that: .
