Great. Can you maybe propose how to fix the pdc modul and the buzzers front+rear to the car? Should I drill the holea and maybe there is a bracket for a modul in the trunck? And maybe there is a OEM proposel for them? If I drill what screws metal or plastic should I use?

In the thread dedicated to my 6R here on the forum, you have "all" the info. I went from 4K to 8K. The information is scattered because my thread isn't a how-to tutorial; I post as I go.
The Drive2.ru forum has some very good threads with detailed information and images of the processes. Use the translator if you need it.

Use the forum search engines with the appropriate terms, part numbers, etc., and you'll get good results.
I recommend using the original VW tool to make the holes for a perfect finish.

Parts are on the way. I bought originjal vw tool for the holes in the bumper. For the front senzors I beleive that the premarked places for the holes are not there so can you help with the distances of the each holes?

Also I am still trying to find maybe a 5q0 pdc modul with already 1k8 software installed Is the part from shirocco with numbers on it: the solution 1K8 919 472, Steuergerät / ECU, VW 364 Scirocco, 8 Kanal FS, 5Q0 919 294 A, HW 002, SW 0320?

The 6R never had front PDC sensors, so I don't have the measurements to install the PDC sensors in the front bumper.
I watched a YouTube video of a 6C 'R-line' (externally identical to a 6R 'R-line') and made the holes exactly the same. :)
:arrow: :arrow: :arrow: viewtopic.php?p=540844#p540844
1K8 PDC units have been fitted to several VW PQ models including the Scirroco.

Hmm ... I may have my 8K 1K8 PDC unit available for an affordable price in one or two months (SW: 1K8 919 472 C HW: 5Q0 919 294 A).🤷‍♂️
I'm trying to go from 8K to 12K 360º...

So 1k8 unit from schiroco will work? Automatic front senzors?
Hmm...if the price is right I can maybe wait....

Yes, automatic activation will work with these PDC units.
The OPS will depend on the radio/infotainment system installed. I posted videos of automatic activation with RNS510 and DM.

The hardware must be 5Q0 919 294 A, from here, it must have a software 1K8 919 472 C either from the factory or by flashing (ODIS, VCP), from here, it is also necessary to transfer the data set (ODIS, VCP), and from here, code the unit (VCDS, etc.).

The right price is the one you consider appropriate for you... + shipping costs. Cheap 😊.

I already bought pdc modul for 4K rear park senzors and I can install all the wiring for front and rear senzors but not connect the front while I wait for your "cheap" price ;).

But only if the price is worth the wait...so....be gentle please, you are the seller.. :D :D :D :D

Also you used for the retrofit the part 3B0919136A in the forum? What is that part for?

It is a component/part/bracket for attaching connectors and other parts/elements to the vehicle structure, widely used by VW in its vehicles. It is very effective.👌
Some connectors have a structurally designed attachment point for these brackets.

There are many different models of this component depending on its intended location. A long time ago I bought several with different part numbers depending on the thickness of the piece that 'bites' and 'fixing angle'.

eg:

The price, payment, and shipping that suits you best for the 1K8 unit by PM, ...but remember, you must wait until I finish my 12K project and tell you it's available.

Thanks, but does that mean that I should buy them for the front or rear instalation to hold them in place or there is some other way to "fix" them to the body of the car?

Regarding the module I do not know how to send you a PM ?

It just means I did it that way. It's just another way to secure wiring or parts.
There are countless ways to do this, but the most common and usual in retrofits is with Zip ties, ... however, this one is very EFFECTIVE, which is why VW uses it in certain structural areas when manufacturing its vehicles.

There are ZIP ties/clamps with these parts/brackets included.
Using your imagination, you can create very clever fasteners with Zip ties and other small parts.

I had the private messages folder at 100%, maybe that was the problem. I've deleted 50%... try again now. Sorry.

Parts are all here. I read a lot of links but I am confused a bit.
Someone says that wires for can high and low must be connected to the gateway, some say bcm and some instr.cluster? Which is it?

The CAN bus lines dedicated to the PDC in the PQ25 are called "powertrain", this is also commonly used for the other PQ platforms.

In the PQ25, the powertrain CAN lines are used by several units, including Gateway(BCM), Engine, ABS, Instrument Cluster, G85, OBD2 port, and others depending on the installed equipment.

In my humble opinion, the easiest/least complex place to "join" or splice the CAN lines for the PDC in the 6R is in the CAN lines of the instrument cluster connector.
H to H, L to L, easy peasy.
These CAN bus wire splices or connections should be at God level, or at least at semi-PRO level. Using couplings (VW connectors) is always more reliable.
