Z44 fusebox is under/beside glovebox. No need to remove glove box at all. You just need to remove black cover under glove box. Open two "finger screws" and cover removes very easily. Then you can find Z44 fusebox unit on right side, just front of BCM. Check this picture (RHD-version..., but same idea).

Access to fuse 57 (wireside) is pretty difficult. So I decided to pull Z44 unit completely out from its place: Pull out passenger side foot panels (plastic panels). That helps little bit. Then you can detect white clips at the Z44 rear end. Bend clips little bit > pull Z44 rear end downward (its stiff), and then drag it strongly backwards. With using reasonable power, it really finally comes out and you have Z44 unit on your hand. Here is few extra pics, where you can see how it works (Z44 unit, picture)

With those pictures you probably could do Fuse 57 wiring without removing Z44? But before that you need to pick correct fuse pin from dealer. If you do that, please post those pins OEM part numbers here. And also you need new pin for X434*1B. Then maybe you can plug it straight from Z44 upper side to F57 wire slot. Room is very tight.... After that, access to "X434*1B" is easy case. Side cover is very tight!

All functions is working perfectly after coding. Instrument cluster messages and automatic turn on functions as well
