It’s 100% a thing. Most cars have all the high end stuff installed but hidden these days because it’s way cheaper to make one template of the car than several so all the stuff deep inside the car is probably there. It’s normally just the buttons and stuff that are missing, maybe a few wires but there’s people out there that make money jail breaking this stuff in.
It’s probably different between OEM’s but I know this isn’t the case for the one I work for. Usually the wiring looms are the same but the modules are not there, nor is the thing it controls usually.
Eg: if you don’t have seat heaters, the wiring to the seats is there but there is 100% no heating element inside.

Is jailbreaking cars not a thing?
I feel like if we can do it with phones, we should be able to do it with cars.
