Adding "trip button" on wipers control

Hello,

I just bought a Polo 6R 2011 Style finition and I was surprised it didn't have the button to change what is on the center screen (consomption, speed, autonomy). I would like to add this function.
Finding the part is not complicated but is anyone already did it ? Do I need to change the wiring or it's plug & play between the previous (without trip button) wipers command and the new one (with trip button) ?
I know I will need to buy and use VAG COM to implement the feature into the car system. Do you have the process for this particular function ?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Pierre-Yves

you will need to run few wires to your instrument cluster,
and you will have to code the function using vcds, or something similar

Do you have a wire diagram or any material to understand what is the wiring ?
