Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi: Just picked up my '03 Boxster S (Speed Yellow) with the high-end Bose system. I would like to add my Delphi XM Radio receiver to the head-unit via an Aux In versus an FM Modulator. Can I do this and has anyone done this before? Thanks!

POST 2Original post

I do not know about the XM radio receiver; however, we would love to see a pic of your new car. What is your interior color? wheels/tires? Other stuff??

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I will get some pics up shortly. It's a Boxster S with high-end Bose system, body color roll bars, heated seats, Xenons, Porsche crest wheel with the nice red calipers, and cruise. It's been a blast in its first 1000 miles. Speed Yellow with black interior.

POST 5Original post

On a 2003 with Bose you have the MOST fiber optic system. You do not have an aux in, so you have to use the modulator. Jeff
