Perhaps I've missed threads about this but on the 'DÆrik' youtube channel they showed upgrading the front fender (side repeater cameras) from RCCC AP2.0 to RCCB AP2.5/3.0 versions [albeit for ~$130 each]. The output for the Dashcam and rear backing up seems a lot better.
Aside: on my X the repeater camera chrome tops currently have tiny indents from hail (2 birds 1 stone?)
However, I'm concerned that the calibration or some configuration needs to be done ... in order for this to work for FSD when it is more feature-complete? ??
Based on past posts I wonder if @kdday or GreenTheOnly (twitter -- can't find his TMC userid) know if there are configuration options/settings for the side repeaters????

Background info I had from some other TMC post or elsewhere:
RCCC and RCCB are color filters on the camera sensor.
RCCC = Red Clear Clear Clear pixels in a 4 pixel-clusters.
RCCB = Red Clear Clear Blue.
Regular "color" cameras are RGGB (G=Green) in a bayer pattern.

For those of you attempting what @Akikiki is doing by physically installing a tuner and hoping to convince Tesla Service to change your car configuration to enable it (who knows if they even will or can - Toolbox may not even allow them to try), you could say something like this:
I would say :
Dear Tesla Technician -
I know that my MCU2 retrofit means that I will lose AM/FM/XM radio because part of the retrofit process does NOT include replacing the old analog tuner (for mcu1) with the new digital tuner (for mcu2).
However, I have replaced the tuner myself, and all the wiring is completed. I've even routed the single cable to the rear of the MCU so you can plug it I to mcu2 once your retrofit is complete.
However, mcu2 will not provision the new tuner unless you enable it in the gateway's internals.dat car configuration. It's my understanding that all that needs to happen is to change "ethernettunertype 1" to "ethernettunertype 0" (or just removing that line entirely" in the gateway and it'll start to work.
Would you mind doing this while Toolbox is connected?
Thank you
