The EGSM, which is the electronic gear shifter unit in the PHEV, is a different diagnostic part number between the leather and crystal version of the EGSM, 31673442 vs 31673443. So that means it is not neccessarily a compatible module, has it's own versions of software, from the Volvo/VIDA perspective. It may well work, you would need to be OK dealing with any future issues updating software in VIDA as the type of EGSM module will not be original.
There doesn't seem to be enough info in that linked thread, the poster didn't say whether he bought he part new or used. It's a module so if new it would have been needed to be loaded with software. Used you can't be sure what software is loaded on the module already. There is not enough info to say if that could have worked or not.
It's not a config item it appears. But anybody who wants to give a try and see if it can work, I can probably help with any software to load that is needed and OrBit should load it.
(Side Note the EGSM changed for 2022 or 23, new hardware for the "single tap" type shifter to replace the "double tap" shifter many have complained about over the years)
Ugh. I had a loaner with the “single tap” shifter. Hated it. I just don’t like the car “skipping” neutral because it knows better than me.
