I had a Dension Gateway 500 in my 997 in the frunk that had to be PIWIS coded as a CD changer way back when--when I self-installed the PCCM+, there was no coding required. You should be fine.
I am fine as far as coding the PCCM+ - it works fine in all respects. (I had done the same when the Dension was installed for the original SXM radio.)
The "chirp" from the Mods4Cars module that was set now no longer works. It appears that the PCCM+ must use one of the same "channels" (not sure of the exact word) that the Mods4Cars uses for it's activities /settings.
I used https://www.bergvillfx.com for mine. Even though they're in Norway, I had the amp back in about a week and the pricing is very reasonable. Would highly recommend.
Their site only lists the ASK amp repair, for a very reasonable €100, but they don't seem to do the Bose amp, unfortunately. (Still need to get mine fixed.)

I’m pretty sure they do both but I could be wrong. I’d reach out to them and ask if you haven’t already.
Cable that enables switching USB/Carplay to the back i have 3 left. The second cable, which allows the front USB to function for charging and MP3 (excluding Carplay) i have one left. I will PM you.

Reason: up
Since installing the new pccm+ my head and tail lights come on when the car is started/running when the switch is off. The switch now only controls the fog lights. Anyone else have this issue?
Yes, I got the same behavior when I first switch on my new unit. In the PCCM+ configuration settings, there is an option to turn off the 'daytime running lights' (I believe is a check box) if you remove the check, the car goes back to its original headlights operation.
Just want to post my installed unit. This is an amazing upgrade that I'd highly recommend. This is the ultimate setup for me.
Found the right shop who removed and had the bezel painted. I brought them all the parts and gave instructions I collected through this thread and others and the install works perfectly. Added the xm antenna, the jgoga wire to send usb out the back, the wireless carplay adaptor tucked back behind the unit, and a reverse camera from Amazon. I tried doing the alibaba reverse usb wire and the shop had an issue with it. The jgoga wire was plug and play so I'd recommend going that way. I didn't need power out the front as I had already installed a magsafe charger onto a rennline mount.
They mounted the microphone that came with the unit on the top left of the windshield. It's pretty small and out of the way so I'm not mad at it's location. I hate seeing wires. It works very well with the top up but have not tried the top down. Didn't know enough about the mod to install it into the steering wheel but might have had shop try it if there was more information/instructions.

Nice! Can we have a broader view of your interior? It looks really nice!

And the car in general. Looks like midnight blue with…..speed yellow deviated stitching? I’m looking in my phone so maybe I’m wrong but sounds like an interesting spec.

I don't have great interior pics handy but here are a few before the PCCM was installed and before i recovered my steering wheel. It's got sport seats with backs painted also.
The shop is Extreme Motorsports on Rt. 4 in Paramus. Speak to John the owner. He is well versed now on installing this unit the right way.
