Do you need only two wires or need alpha for software modifications. I’m looking in the forum. I don’t found anybody said “I did “ and it’s you need.

You'll need alfaobd. Earlier I posted a link above. I believe the link works. It's extremely long, read through and you'll find your answers

hey Buddy
you will need to cables LVDS and another one for the hazard lights, after that you will need the OBD dongle and the security bypass and then AlfaOBD to make changes, after that disconnect the negative terminal from the battery and wait around 30-40 min and everything in the screen will be functional , some of the previous feature eventually will come up

Try searching "alfaobd" on this site. iirc it's in the 4th gen section of the forum. Sorry I cannot be of more help with this! There are many here that should be able to point you in the right direction but they seem to be absent!

You mean guardian?
You can't...
 
What obd plug in is everyone using? Has anyone used the bafx? Does it need to be a Bluetooth one?
 
Are these two interchangeable to bypass the security gateway. Either will do the job?

Can anyone point me to where about in this massive thread I can find the process for 8.4 non nav to 12” upgrade from start to finish? I’ve been through a good bit of the thread but it’s so much I must be missing it.

There's plenty of info here. Send the info I used was @ post 7900(ish). Hope the link I shared works, if not sorry, bring my pay grade unfortunately.
