Model Year 22/23 Formentor pre-lift PDC upgrade

[formentorres]

Hi, I have a Cupra Formentor (10.2022, MY2023) with 4 PDC sensors in the rear—since the front bumper was damaged, I bought a new one with PDC holes and wanted to upgrade the Formentor to a full PDC system. After looking into it, it turned out that the Formentor was available in two versions:

1) 4 PDC sensors in the rear (shame on you VAG);
2) 6 PDC sensors in the front + 6 PDC sensors in the rear, so:

- I bought 2 additional rear PDC sensors and a wiring harness for 6 PDC sensors,
- I bought 6 front PDC sensors and a wiring harness for 6 PDC sensors,
- I also bought a 12 PDC module for the cabin.

The problem is that the cabin module should have two harnesses connected to it, but the old version only had one (I suspect it was the rear one).
Both, the old front bumper harness (without PDC) and the one for 6 PDCs, have 3 connectors that link the bumper harness to the rest of the vehicle. Therefore, there is no additional output that could connect to a module in the cabin.

Question 1: Will the old (rear) connector for the module support 6 PDCs instead of 4 PDCs?
Question 2: Where can I get the second connector for the module? I couldn’t find anything like that on PartsLink schemes.

Have I missed something important?

Old module only supports 4 sensors (rear)

Connector part number will be listed on partslink if you look for long enough

Of course, I replaced the module - what I'm wondering now is what's between the module and the rear bumper harness (will the old connection support both 4 PDC and 6 PDC?) and where to get the connection between the front bumper harness and the module.

You'll have to install all of the wiring for the additional sensors. They do not install unused wiring

I'm assuming you're talking about something like what's in the photo? (photo from the Kufatec set)

If so, does anyone have any ideas on how to integrate this with the new front bumper assembly?
