NBT Evo ID4 to ID5/6 Headunit Coding Question

Hello forum, I've been reading a lot and want to thank all the members for contributing their time and knowledge.

I want to upgrade my 2016 428xi head unit to ID5/6, and would only need the new head unit and wifi antenna for wireless CarPlay. My car has existing nav.

If I purchased a head unit from a newer model (WBA4J1C57KBM17874 - 9/2018):
  • Do I have to bench code to change from donor VIN to my VIN on head unit? Or can I code after installing into vehicle (worried about anti-theft measures)
  • Is e-net cable and esys software all I need to code?

Thanks for any guidance!
