Qi 15w wireless charger
Bought one of those on TEMU for £8.99 a while back. You can trim it down and it's quite sticky on the back too.

Nothing for me yet, but I live in a very poor mobile signal area.

You'll just have to wait and see what arrives.

Qi 15w wireless charger
You do realise that you're going to need an adapter to get it to work, as it comes with the old style USB A connector.

Update to Version 1969
No. With that low number software/firmware revision it requires a visit to a dealer to be updated to iirc 1869 and a possible hardware replacement as well, before you can make the jump to 1941 & 1969 software/firmware revisions. Please don't try and install 1969 on that as you may end up having to have a new infotainment system.

Can we add speed camera alerts to Mk4 Sat Nav?
You can't. You need to be an level 6 editor to add them to Waze. Waze is slowly becoming better than GM, as they're updated more frequently.

Mirror USB charging socket
Temu. Aliexpress both do coiled cables, which is the easiest solution you might needed an adapter to pop on the end if necessary (£1-£2). See my post earlier.

Can we add speed camera alerts to Mk4 Sat Nav?
Hi. Does anyone know if we can import Speed Camera locations into the Mk4's Sat Nav system as POIs? I do camera spotting for PocketGPSWorld every so often, making notes of where cameras are around West Surrey & NE Hants, adding them to their subscription database, I also report them for adding to Waze.

That would best be posted in the forum for Diagnostics.

Update to Version 1969
ODIS has (generally) restricted access to dealers only, so unlikely to be available to download. I also suspect that the consequences for any employee & franchise permitting a download to be downloaded & distributed in the public domain could/would be quite dire for both. Bite the proverbial bullet and get it done officially and then you have comeback on the dealer if it doesn't work and causes major problems.

Update to Version 1969
I've downloaded the 1969 file and it's sitting on my tablets memory card. I don't know whether to do the update or just try and find a host so others can download it.

At least its under warranty and under no cost to you. Still not good for a 2023 car though.

I find it can be very picky about it, if you have a good phone signal it's not too bad, otherwise crap.. I've also noticed that traffic sign recognition has disappeared from the shop for some reason.

You don't need to enter any payment details for WinZip or any Apple alternative, they have it embedded. Beware of paying for ANY zip file program from anywhere other than an authorised site such as Windows Store, or Apple store or in case of Android Play Store.

You can tweak the speedo increments using OBD11, if you have it. But it's more hassle than it's worth tbqh.

The app has significantly improved since it first came out and there are different versions of it in existence. I checked mine and it's up to date

Update to Version 1969
You can get a dealer to do it at cost, if you have an early software revision, it's better to pay them a £100 or so to do it, rather than try doing it yourself and bricking the infotainment system and having to have it replaced. Although I believe that East_Yorkshire Retrofits maybe able to recover it if you were to attempt it and fail. http://www.eastyorkshireretrofits.co.uk
