Default 992 GPS Unit

I have a customer 992 cup that doesn’t recognize US tracks. The car believes it’s still at Spa. The gps setting is in automatic. I believe the gps unit is missing from the car based on parts diagrams.
Does anyone have a picture of the GPS unit installed in the vehicle? There is a Pigtail labeled gps tied up in the harness by the pass door opening. Any information would be appreciated.

It looks like a pancake shaped sensor on the roof and plugs into the harness near passenger b pillar.

The technical manual has some recommendations on how to mount both the GPS and radio antenna, but with the hole in the middle, you can't follow their recommendations. You could mount the GPS antenna to the side. My car had a hole up near the front of the roof for video equipment, so I placed my GPS antenna there and the UHF antenna where you have it.
