"No Signal" means wrong coding most of the Time.
If the screen is blank but the backlight turns on, CID Settings should be correct and there is another issue.

Can you check ISTA for error messages with my listed codings?

I haven't been able to check with ISTA, my computer doesn't have enough space for the apps. Is there an alternative that I can use to check for errors? On a side note the car has carplay coded via usb along with VIM. I'm not sure if that can be the cause of the issue with the screen.

You can use AIcoder to check DTCs or Tool32 if you have the NBT.prog file.
Can't tell if VIM/Carplay have any influence.

I haven't done any shaving or grinding yet. I might do it just to make the screen sit more flushed with the dashboard.

I'd love to know how to retrofit a G steering wheel to the F3x chassis as well. The new wheels are super nice! IK6SPEED seemed to be very knowledgeable.

I didn't try however recently saw following steering wheel from G30 which according to what is written was modified to work on F30. So if you are interested in maybe somebody can try it, it will be interesting to know results.

Looks like he's on the corvette forums now if you are still wondering. Googled his username & found it.
