Can't help you there, I don't have a heated steering wheel.. (chances are it will be, just play around with the settings, these things have a ridiculous amount of features)

Pulled the pin. Unit has been ordered. Was told 3 week wait. COVID reasons.

I wonder if the low res factory cam can be ripped out and used as a rock cam up front for tracks

I've ordered a rear cam for mine, should be here any day now, I'll try to hook the factory one up as a front facing (it will be shit resolution though)

As far as I know, all the features you have on stock oem 2014 unit work via this unit, not sure what harness you need, but it will be worth it, such a great unit..

From their engineer
the response was that the steering wheel heater is not compatible
This might be due to 3rd party Canbus limitations
Gutted
trying to confirm what else doesnt work
its a shame second hand Uconnects really dont compare to how good this is
but loosing features sucks too

Ive got a 2014 limited with heated steering wheel as well but would like carplay navigation etc.
Piity about the non function of some of the functions but im watching this thread with interest.
The irony is its really the map issue im looking to address.
I see a couple of guys on here have uploaded non oem updated maps to the uconnect head unit but you need to know coding to do it.

I use mine a lot during winter but not for long. It heats up pretty quickly.
