Quick question, is the engineering test mode something that 05-09 users can access? Ive played around with the three buttons on the console trying different sequences and cant seem to access it.

Thanks

Looks good other then you need the premium steering wheel that has the navigation buttons.

Having the sensors in the car on a 2012 might not be the same as having the sensors communicating with the dashboard display. If they're not programmed to send the right messages, like lateral G-forces, to the display, then the display won't receive them and display them. The sensors might be present, but if the dashboard doesn't receive messages from them, the dashboard will not give you anything you don't already have.

But if the sensors are present, then this should work:

Any word on install into a Base 2013 model? I just picked one up and wouldn't mind paying a bit of coin to install the Premium instrument cluster.

You can always just buy one of these:

May not be integrated into the car itself, but that just means you can take it with you if you buy another car. Also may be cheaper than any integrated option that may come out in the future (the SS is only $199, so can't really get much cheaper than that).
