E93 coding for convertible top?

I read somewhere that's it's possible to code/activate some additional features for the convertible top:

1) Increase the operational speed of the top.
2) Allow the top to open/close while moving up to 5mph.

I'm also wondering if it's possible to code a feature where the top will open/close with just a single click of the button (instead of holding it the entire time).

Anyone done any of this?

And yes I know there is a module I can buy called a SmartTop, which does all this... but, it's $400, that's a no-go (especially if I am just code these in).

I have the OBDLink MX+ which should be capable of the same thing (if not more) as Carly (I wasn't feeling the Carly ongoing subscription fee to use it, given it's not something I use regularly).
