Genius, thanks guys, was wondering whether to use a DIN cage or get the surround fascia and side panels! This video explains this process well!
Hello my friend,
What is the color of the cable of the car, to connect to the lighting of the new radio (orange color of my new radio).
Your help please, I just need to find this one.
Porsche is a two syllable word. “Por-shuh.
Such a great video.
What happens to the vehicle info and/or settings that you would normally access through the factory PCM unit? Are they gone forever? Trying to figure out an aftermarket head unit install for my Cayenne 958.
Thank you for all of your help and the detailed video. This video and your backup camera basics helped me get through what was a reasonably complex install on my Cayman. I couldnt have done it without your videos!
Porsche is pronounced with two syllables, not one.
How do you route the wire from the fuse box to the radio cavity?
Good video, but rather than doing all the re-pinning and soldering, wouldn't Crutchfield have play-and-play adapters for this?
Good video.
Precise, explanatory, practical.
Not a bunch of bullshit fluff and meaningless dribble.
Good video guys…one suggestion however…find a way to fix the focus..the autofocus keeps trying to adjust
Great video! Curious if you've ever dealt w/ a Cayman w/ Bose system
Hi,
I have a 2005 base Boxster and everywere on the net i only find a 400$ adapter plug ?? And your is 12$ ??
What the difference ? They say that i need this 400$ plug to bypass the Bose system ? I have a CDR24 oem radio ??
Thanks in advence
Thanks A lot!!!!!
My 06 Boxster radio just stopped working. Wish I could get you guys to install a new one!
my bottom speakers in the door don't work, the tops (tweeters work fine), I thought maybe the bottoms were considered rear (because there are no actual rears), so I tried that, no help. Put in the original cdr24 to make sure I wasn't going crazy, I'm not, can clearly hear the sound out of the bottoms with the factory head unit.. ideas??? thx! 2006 Porsche Boxster
🙂 Worth giving this work to a pro. Complicated but great information here for someone skilled enough to go for it.
Do you have a video if it has the BOSE system?
Have you ever changed out a 981 head unit for the one in the 718? I’m interested
cant find these best kits
great video but im stuck. i have a bose sound system and does not have the "brown" plug in that fits into the harness for the speakers. is there another adapter?
what different steps are required for a bose system?
Looking for an upgrade stereo w/Sirius XM. Sent a Facebook message.
For an 01 Boxster the wire harness for the speakers?
