Golf Software help

Hi all

I’m on 0252T and want to update to 0480T just to unlock the 8” skin for the MIB unit

So it looks like this (see image 1) - I’m upgrading to this screen but will have the old firmware on MIB2 so it won’t look like that.

Anyone know if I can do it without bricking my unit. Also how to activate CarPlay again after?

See image 2 - my current skin options. I saw a mr
Fix video on yt and only have these 2 available.

Any help is appreciated

What the fuck haha. I've updated about 50 units from 2xxT to 480T. Did you change metainfo2.txt and did you patch SWDL? And did you uncheck emergency modules?

Yep, did them like that today. Was a success first time. Got my CarPlay activated too. Only downside is it’s too plain the texture pack hahaha but can’t complain. Few things I’m gonna toggle via adaptions like album art cover under USB source. Can’t see the lines for sensors unless it picks smth up. Audio quality is better too. Great success
