In Korea, you could drop your car off at an aftermarket shop where they do
retrofit as a service. But here in the US you have to figure out everything yourself...
In my case, I have a 2022 USA-spec G70 3.3T RWD in Sport Prestige trim and want to add the power trunk and full digital cluster.
The procedure for swapping the cluster is outlined in the sevice manual. You need 3 things:
1. A New Cluster
Easy to find and order.
2. Genesis GDS (scanner / programming tool)
The cheapest route is to make friends with someone who has this, know a tech at the dealer, or buy a cloned one. The real ones go for about $2500.
3. The "Variant Code"
This is my current blocker. The variant code tells the car / component what other modules to expect. But how does one find or calculate a variant code?
Once you have those three things the procedure is a piece of cake.
