I have plenty of time, because the car wont arrive until late April or May, but there are a couple of US restrictions that I wish to remove/enable.
  1. PDLS+. I want these to work as designed, where they dynamically darken the area for on coming traffic or the car in front.
  2. Cab roof activation from keyfob. (I know there is an aftermarket module available, but why?). Also not sure if the non US cars have a different fob to enable this.
Any ideas?

I just installed the mods4cars roof activation. Very easy with more functions than just activating the roof (windows).

Someone got a quote for taking on #1. The first RennList'er to do it will be a hero in the 992 community.

Agreed! I'd really like to have this work as advertised.

Subscribing to keep up-to-date on whether somebody solves this :-)

Using PIWIS 3 I managed to activate the windows up and down with the key fob.

the top requires an euro key fob with the 4 buttons, Although the American version has the electronics for the 4th button underneath, not sure if functional.

Agree, also subscribing incase of a update... I heard the US DOT was why the PDLS+ isn't working for us... we have to lobby them to get on this approval process.

mods4cars Online Shop

Remote window operation independent of roof (open/close windows with fob), one touch up/down for the windscreen - ability to turn on/off hazards while top is opening / closing. leaving windows up/down after remote opening / closing It's a very easy install and you can also specify whether you want to push the buttons a number of times to activate the features or hold down for the same number of seconds to activate. It's not a massive features upgrade but it was easy to install, it's not break the bank expensive, and it works well every time I've tried it. It's a summer tool and I'm in the heart of winter in New York right now - talk to me in 6 months and I bet I'll be singing its praises even more, but I'm very satisfied with it.
