Dension Gateway 500 - Dealership activate CD Changer

My C4S does not have a CD Changer and Navigation module installed. I just finished installing the Dension Gateway 500 and Dension Bluetooth option. Eric from Bumperplugs.com mentioned that the Gateway 500 emulates as the CD Changer and to bring my Porsche to the dealer and have them activate the CD Changer option in the PCM.

How much would I expect to pay for Brumos Porsche to enable the CD Changer option?

Thank you for your assistance.

Did you try it first? You may not need activation!

Porsche of Tysons corner did it for Free of Charge even I did not buy nor service my car there.

It should be less than 1/2 hr labor.

Yes, I've tried it. Additionally, I pressed the "Main" and "Trip" button at the same time to see my version of PCM. It did not display any CDC or NAV.

my car does not have a cd changer or navi but my installer was able to make it work as the cd changer without a trip to the dealer. no special programming equipment was used either.
