Impressive job! It’s a shame we pay so much for our cars and have so little support for such things. Well done and thanks for the video, very informative 👌🏻
Great job. I was wondering that with CarPlay and on Spotify can you also change the songs by using the PCM's arrow buttons that are adjacent to the volume knob? Currently, with my iPhone connected wirelessly via AUX BT the arrow buttons work for song selection on Spotify.
Hi Ethan- nice video. You said this works with 997.2. Are you sure about this? Do i need to do any mods to the original factory radio? Where can I find more info?
Its aftermarket but they only did the slot for the iPhone 7 and now I have iPhone X so it doesn't fit and I wrote to the company in Germany a few times asking them if they will make the slot for iPhone X and they said No. So don't bother getting one. Very expensive and waste of money.
Hi Ethan. Impressive. Thanks so much. Can you please give me information about the Back up camera you installed. You mentioned it plugs into CarPlay device. So Thant means one does not have to buy the expensive Nav TV PCM3.1 XG CAM. What’s the resolution on your camera? Please can you post where you bought it and the model. Thanks so much
No idea. It’s been a very long time and I sold the car last year. I bought it for the same supplier that I bought the rest of the stuff from. Link in the description
That was amazing ! The extra microphone its just for siri or now its the main microphone and it works also for the callings? Im worried about the talking quality. Thanks for your answer and for the really good video.
Nice work! Are you able to continue to listen to the radio while using Waze, for example? I've read that most solutions like this don't allow that; it's either/or.
Very well done, In this day and age Porsche need to give a little back to customers by providing as standard things like Apple Car Play and reversing cameras. All these things can be standard fare on even a small city runabout these days. A greedy money making exsersize
Hi Ethan, I enjoyed your video and I installed the same unit on my 991 yesterday. Could I ask you where you put the main unit? I put it in back of the PCM unit, but space is so tight. I was just wondering where you put yours. Please reply, and thank you in advance. TP
Nice work!! Do all the component go inside the PCM unit or there is an additional unit that you need to place under the steering wheel? I am asking because JoeyAuto (www.joyeauto.com/porsche-pcm3-1-cayenne-panamera-macan-boxster-911-wifi-wireless-apple-carplay-solution/) seems to have an additional unit, but it's not clear in your video whether yours also has this.
Andres Diaz yes I did. NM automotive has some issues with delivery to North America so I ordered the Joyeauto system from AliExpress. Fairly easy to install. Take a look at the install video from Auto Amateur.
Shikhar Sagar, hi and sorry for the late reply.. I never saw your comment. I ended up buying the kit from Joyeauto. Relatively simple to install and I’ve been using it for over two months with no issues. Very happy to have added carplay.
I don’t know that looks pretty complicated on the radio deal but I do get if you follow the directions step-by-step that may be just a bridge too far for me the way I like all those conveniences
Very interesting! Thank you for publishing this! I'm very tempted to do the same thing with my 2011 Cayenne S. Have you noticed any glitches or issues since you completed the installation?
Jan Rella Sorry I cant because they are specific to each system and they come from the manufacturer. So it won’t work with every unit. Plus I don’t want to post other people’s work online for free. You should ask the supplier.
First of all. Congratulation for your retrofit. I ´m considering to do on mine, but My doubt is.... My PCM 3.1 is having the "reboot issue".. it restart every 2 or 3 min while is trying to load the maps on the nav system. Is the problem continue if I retrofit to CarPlay? (thank you again)
Hello, I am having the same reboot issue and need to know if this helps? What did you find?
4 года назад
I did boight this retrofit. Because my unit was “crazy”. And I not a DIY kind of guy.. to gamble with that issue and solution. I had my pcm all new unit replaced at a Porsche Centre Dealership. And bought more 2 year warranty. Tired of the PCM disc error. The problem is on the disk.. there is workshops in UK (Unfortunatly not in Portugal) that change the disk to a ssd disk... and no more problems.

But I would like to have carplay on my 991.1 2015 GTS
Very impressive! I don't think I would have the confidence to do this myself and would worry that I would screw it up! Kudos to you!
Impressive job! It’s a shame we pay so much for our cars and have so little support for such things. Well done and thanks for the video, very informative 👌🏻
Well done, with the high cost of replacement it always takes someone to be bold to show others the way. Looks factory spec.
Absolutely amazing. Well done. Congratulations

Excellent job, Ethan!
Cool video.
Did you have to select an auxiliary input to use CarPlay audio or does it work natively when selected?
Great Job! This looks ace!
Hi Ethan- nice video. You said this works with 997.2. Are you sure about this? Do i need to do any mods to the original factory radio? Where can I find more info?
See the link in the video. The guy I bought it from is very nice and will provide you with the information.
Excellent video Ethan. Thank you.
Ethan, that slotted iphone charger you mention, is that aftermarket or is that factory? Curious where I could get one for my Panamera.
Its aftermarket but they only did the slot for the iPhone 7 and now I have iPhone X so it doesn't fit and I wrote to the company in Germany a few times asking them if they will make the slot for iPhone X and they said No. So don't bother getting one. Very expensive and waste of money.

No idea. It’s been a very long time and I sold the car last year. I bought it for the same supplier that I bought the rest of the stuff from. Link in the description
Nice Job, did adding the backup camera require any additional coding in the PCM?
Nope, it works through the CarPlay box that switches the PCM screen to video mode when you put the car into reverse.
What about if you have a 2009 Carrera? Don’t think I have this PCM model. Am I out of luck?
That was amazing !
The extra microphone its just for siri or now its the main microphone and it works also for the callings? Im worried about the talking quality. Thanks for your answer and for the really good video.

I think so, I sold the car two years ago

Behind it and the camera controller behind the steering wheel
Very interesting & useful video thanks
Good Vid - with the car play add-on - does that integrate into the gauge cluster display?
No, and it didn't even on my 718 with the CarPlay from Porsche factory
Very impressive, indeed ! So, you seem not to have removed the DAB functionality? The retrofit circuit is just mounted above the DAB circuit?
Yes it is mounted above the DAB so all the original functionality is still there.
Where did you get the iPhone holder. It looks really great
They don't make it for the new iPhones since they are too big in size. I got it from a German company can't remember the name.
Good work Ethan
Nice work!! Do all the component go inside the PCM unit or there is an additional unit that you need to place under the steering wheel?

Yes there is an additional unit you need to place somewhere if you want to attach a rear view camera which I did.
@@EthanFromLondon Thanks! So if I already have a camera I wouldn't need the extra unit? Or is it needed regardless?
How is this working 2 years on? I’m thinking of purchasing the same unit for my pcm 3.1
You will have to ask the new owner. I sold the car a while ago.
Well done old chap!!!
Ethan... Great Video. I'm looking for a PCM upgrade for my 981. Will look up NM Automotive. Thx!!
tony Santos Hi, did you find the upgrade for your 981. I am looking to upgrade mine as well. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Cheers!!
+1! Did you do it?
Andres Diaz yes I did. NM automotive has some issues with delivery to North America so I ordered the Joyeauto system from AliExpress. Fairly easy to install. Take a look at the install video from Auto Amateur.

Impressive, well done.
Excellent work done
Requires skills
NM ships to the USA once again!
Good job! Well done
Amazing job!! what about a trip to Niagara/Canada to do mine?
If you fly me over and provide boarding and lodging 😂
I installed one that doesn't need a new mic just a board and done. Isudar no external box needed.
Can this be done on a 2014 Cayman S with CDR-31?
God only knows!
Very interesting! Thank you for publishing this! I'm very tempted to do the same thing with my 2011 Cayenne S. Have you noticed any glitches or issues since you completed the installation?
No problems at all
I didn’t know any 997.2s came with PCM 3.1?
they don't. its just pcm3
Andrew Rossiter ok your title included 997.2 so I was confused

Awesome video! Can you post a link to the instructions?
Best

I got lost in the time lapse.. lol. Good job tho!
I wonder if there is a website to buy
Yes read the description
would like to purchase but live in USA
You can. He can post it to the USA. He has many US customers as that’s how I found this supplier
How much does it cost?
See the link below the video.
Exercise that should be.
Its a bummer he doesn’t ship to the US... I need someone to buy it in Europe and ship to me 🤗
You can use services like parcel2go and have it collected and sent to you anywhere
