I wonder if the logos for the buttons come as stickers? They must wear out and the buttons themselves must come blank as a spare because if the car doesn't have say park assist then the button would be blank.

I am thinking that you could probably swap the cable from left to right if you could get the buttons marked up correctly. I am sure the cable will carry three sets of wires regardless of (functional) options - it just makes sense from a production point of view.

The buttons are laser etched to allow them to light up. There's a guy over on the R forum who made a custom button in one of the blank spaces and had the top etched with his own design.

Well I've had a response back from a Thomas Landmesser at Inbay Systems, and he said (and I quote)

"Thank you very much for your interest in our wireless charging program.
Of course it would be no problem for us to serve you with a RHD version of our Inbay Golf7 solution.
The point is the investment.
We need an initial order of 500 pcs. from any customer in order to go ahead with the tooling investments."


Well I think that's a non starter then  :grin: :grin:
