SoftPanda
NOTE: SOFTPANDA SOFTWARE IS END OF LIFE. It is not updated for the continuous changes that Tesla does for its software. If you want to have OpenPilot-IC integration, please look at Tinkla Buddy.
DISCLAMER: Improper changes to IC or CID can result in the system (and thus your car) being rederend unusable. Potentially not even Tesla can revert some of the changes if done incorrectly. You are doing this at your own risk. You alone are ultimately responsible, not the creator of this site, Comma.ai, Comma.ai community, Tesla, or anyone else.
SoftPanda was a piece of software that made the car's interfaces look and feel like OpenPilot shipped with the car. The IC integration ran the AutoPilot view, powered by OpenPilot. CID integration added settings for OpenPilot in the car's menu.
Additionally, softPanda added map based speed control as well as control over max speed offset.
To install and use the softPanda for IC/CID integration you had to have root access and modify important files on the IC and CID of your Tesla car. Now, all this can be achieve via Tinkla Buddy.

use_tesla_map_data = True
