Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I'm wanting to have the unit replaced/enhanced with something with Apple CarPlay that will connect to the BOSE amp, work with the steering wheel controls and (maybe just a nice to have) still show any detail in the central rev counter dial.

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

I've got a 2010 Boxster 987 with PCM3 and BOSE. I'm wanting to have the unit replaced/enhanced with something with Apple CarPlay that will connect to the BOSE amp, work with the steering wheel controls and (maybe just a nice to have) still show any detail in the central rev counter dial. Any suggestions?

Speak to these guys. Can supply for a network of installers. Well respected https://www.nmautomotive.co.uk/

POST 3Original post

Mr12volt do a pcm3.0 version https://www.mr12volt.com/en-gb/collections/p2000-d...

POST 5Original post

KOKSRACING said: Is the mr12volt a plug and play solution? Can't speak for anything but the PCM 3.1 version, but for that one has to open the PCM and add a secondary board and fit a couple of ribbon cables. The remainder is plug and play.

POST 6Original post

I bought a head unit of these people (for my 997.1 but same rules apply), they match up a unit, facia and all the conversion leads - including Bose or Non-Bose and Steering Wheel Controls (or not in my case) and supply as a complete kit. I then paid my Indy for a couple of hours to fit it, including a little DAB aerial on the dash. Youtube videos suggest its DIY, but I did'nt have the time and I'd end up breaking plastic clips and loosing screws. Works brilliantly, CarPlay via my phone for NAV and Spotify, DAB for 6 Music etc. if needed. I had a Pioneer unit, came to about £450 for the kit and another £160+vat for fitting. I can download a Porsche badge into it, but havent got around to it yet! All I've lost is the ability to see MPG / Trip on the PCM, I can still see it on the dials. And who cares about MPG on a 3.8 flat 6 anyway?!? https://incartec.co.uk/Porsche/Boxster-987

One of the rennlist guys has been working with a Chinese manufacturer to offer 987/997 units that offer all you want with a very oem look. Link to product. A few of the 911 guys have been using it and really pleased with it. More so than the Porsche PCCM+ You can buy it with various processors ram etc. but I know nothing about which is the latest. But thought I would mention it.
