With respect to testing, what multimeter result would indicate if the level is sufficient to fed directly to the amp, or will still require boosting?
Thanks!

Well yeah, but
1 Suspect it will still need to be coded to the car before it will do anything on the canbus and be detected by PCCM
2 Those steering wheels aren't cheap on the open market
So would be interested to know if somebody sans multifunction steering wheel , with access to one, could confirm/deny coding need

I picked up a similar one on Amazon, so they seem to be readily available.
Hope that helps!

I have a late model 987 steering wheel, no multi and manual transmission. All I had to do to get the horn to work was enable multi function with my Foxwell. What I am now wondering is if multi function will actually work if I upgraded to something like this:

I upgraded to a 991.2 heated and it required a new module and Clockspring and coding.

Gaudin told me the new SD cards have yet to be released and they don’t have official direction from Porsche yet but they’re sure they’ll work something out. I guess I’ll check back with them in a couple of months.

I'm trying to determine how to feed an aftermarket amp with a signal from the PCCM+. I removed my original ASK amp (non-BOSE system), spliced into the factory harness to complete my aftermarket setup. BUT the current aftermarket head unit has RCA outs to send the line-level signal to the amp ... PCCM+ does not. .... do you think they would at line level or would I need an additional device to boost the signal?
I'm trying to simplify my current setup (removing unnecessary stuff from prior setup) and have an AudioControl LC6i line level converter that was being used - and it doesn't seem like I need it. If you were feeding a sub with another amp or the like (which I had prior and removed) then maybe having this equipment in the mix would be helpful.
I'm going to do some more testing to see if I can tell any difference in sound quality with or without the AudioControl line level converter. It's kindof a pain to test due to having to flip the wiring around and resetting the amp levels/controls, but my initial testing seemed like the sound quality was the same in either scenario.

10-Pin Plug for Rear USB Subaru Connector
For those who DM'ed me asking, here is the 10-pin plug I ordered and now successfully have successfully up and running:
You just pop out the RCA and black wires. The red wire is actually already on the correct pin for the +5v
Here is a visual of what you wind up making:
Note that the +5v from the 10-pin connector does not feed back into the PCCM+ via the Subaru connector. It only goes out to the USB device to power it.

Once you have done that, the de-pinning it works the same way as the little connectors used for RC helicopters and planes. Here is a good how-to video:
