Coding cruise control retrofit with NCS expert?

anyone coded bc1 to enable MFSW/cruise control?

I just finished my wiring/control/clockspring retrofit now I need to code the ECU, hoping I can do this with NCS expert

So my wire showed up. I have all the parts to install now. Just having trouble refinishing the steering wheel pieces. whatever. I thought I would never see the wire. Were you able to get it programmed via NCS expert? or did you have to go to the dealer?

I checked my plug at the black plug. The one in the car is green. And all the wires need to be swapped. The 2 pins are free. I have it all sorted out except the facelift clutch switch. The directions I have are in German and there is already a clutch switch on the clutch master cylinder. I might just use the pre facelift switch and build my own bracket to trigger it. My old prefacelift car which has cruise control doesn't have a clutch switch but does have a sensor on the master cylinder. So confused.

Can you send me the directions you found? I think existing clutch wire can be tapped no need to run the fusebox lines
