Actually you’re right, distance button is on the steering wheel, not the stalk, my mistake. Definitely going to look for a car with the appropriate pack rather than go down the diy route.

Could be a long wait I know ! :-)

Yeh when I was looking for my current car , of those in stock , none had this specified . Not sure it’s a common option, perhaps due to the price. I think on mine it was part of the technology plus Planck which I think from memory was about £4500.

It’s a great feature I use it most of the time on motorways and in stop start traffic.

Keep looking .

I’m an idiot. Should have wrote that better. Is that a wire that has a connectors on both ends, or have to make your wire and pin one or both connectors.

So clearly I’m also trying to do this Retrofit. I attached the pictures of what I have.
I need:
The lower grill
The steering wheel controls

The two things I’m fuzzy on are
The wiring
And the coding

Thanks.

Thanks
Hardware bud if the car has Parking assistant plus you will save a fortune as won’t need a new DSC pump to do retrofit
