I've been contimplating in ordering these parts and attempting to install this on my NAR Golf Wagon. Only problem is, It looks like I'll need the dealer to program the vehicle to recognize the buttons? I have VCDS.XaGiCo has a guide written in spanish:

I've seen kits on aliexpress that include the 3 buttons and wiring harness.
VW has an official kit. Part number: 5G0 054 809. The instructions are here
It's not entirely clear, but it seems that you might need ODIS to activate the driver profile select. I believe that Golfdave already had driver profile enabled and was only adding an ESC On/Off button. So you might need to have a dealer activate it, after the switch is installed.
Edit: Fixed link to VW instruction manual

I suspect that a high line BCM/Gateway will be needed to retrofit the driving profiles feature.
Looking at the guide, I see BCM part number 5Q0937084AE which is a High version.
from researching a bit i saw that you need two wires going from pin 3 and 6 of the switch connector to the bcm socket c pins 34 and 21 but i did that and did coding with obd eleven which is just one tick but nothing showed up on the screen, couldnt figure out the problem yetHi Guys, this is my first post! Joined to try and figure out how to do this retro-fit to my golf R. Cant understand how someone would have ordered an R and not have driver mode selection on it!!!!
So has anyone been able to do this retro-fit without VW dealer visit? I have the latest version of VCDS and have the kit ordered so hopefully its possible ?
