I use the Mobridge system in my car and I'm very happy with it.

Very happy with my Dension 500SBT for the phone and my iPod capability's for the last few years.If I wanted far better graphics on my GPS I would get probably an 2009-12 C2S.

I am wanting to use the bluetooth for both phone and music.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

Looking for another set of 18" wheels for my 996 but am having trouble finding stuff that's:
1) Not a 19"
2) Not $4000+ dollars (go away HRE, you're drunk!)
3) Not 2 or 3-piece
4) Hubcentric (too bad Forgestar's arn't in 18"
)
5) Must be lighter than OEM, otherwise what's the point really...
Seems like a lot has changed over the past few years since I was looking at aftermarket wheels.
Can you guys please recommend some wheels/post up pics if you have em?
Some stuff that i've been considering are:
1) OZ Allegeritta's In Black (Not sure how they would look on a silver 996 though)
2) Wheel Dynamics 808 - What' with the massive center cap? It's the only thing that's turning me off from these.
3) CCW's - Little bit more pricey but can get them in the exact offset i'm looking for and they are forged which means they should be tough as nails.
Other recommendations?
Hi guys. I know there are threads regarding the Dension 500's. I am new to the forum and recently purchased an 07 4S cab. My car has the PCM 2.1 without a cd changer. I love the car but miss not using my iPhone as my music source. My question is: What is the everyone's thought on the Dension vs aftermarket radio? Is the Dension worth it or should I shell out a couple thousand for a kenwood or alpine unit? I am wanting to use the bluetooth for both phone and music.
Thanks for the advice!!

Very happy with my Dension 500SBT for the phone and my iPod capability's for the last few years.If I wanted far better graphics on my GPS I would get probably an 2009-12 C2S. Until then, I have been extremely happy with the Dension as long as I keep up any Firmware updates! Good luck on your decision!
I did the same, had to be light one piece and good price and 18's.
Victor Equip was the best - much lighter than stock and a great price. Got them last year from wheel dynamics absolutely love them and I am pretty picky about my ride.
I use the Mobridge system in my car and I'm very happy with it. There are a few differences between the two, but I think either one would be a good choice.
I appreciate the responses and suggestions. I like the idea of having the new technology installed but not sure if I want to lose the factory equipment. I know I have to do something though, all our music is now on our phones.
Saw the innsbruck's but think i prefer the 808 to the Victors.
Volk's in 18's are another option but i've heard of people having problems with wheel weights on them.
I'm also very happy with the Dension 500. I installed it in the frunk, and extended the ipod cable to the glovebox. It bluetooths well for both streaming music and handsfree iphone 6s operation. I chose the easier install. If I were to do it again, I would install the unit in the cab. It's not a big deal, as long as I put my iphone in the slot below the PCM for music streaming.
Quote:
my volks are driven everyday and have been through autocrosses and I've never had a problem with wheel weights.
Very few people in very few threads complained about that issue. I suspect it may have been an adhesive problem.
Biased, but here is a vote for volks
Also, take a look at the smarttop add-on. It is really convenient..and really cool with remote operation of the top with the key fob, along with other nice features.
I would agree the 808's look better with the concave albeit heavier (which was a big consideration for me). Also the sizing is too narrow for a WB car, may be ok for you NB though, def a nice looking rim.
Oz makes racing wheels all the way up to Formula 1. Pretty good deal for the money. If you like the style.
Volks are also very hard and track oriented. And light.
Or, how about some oem 5 spoke wheels? Light and look good.
i have a dension kit that i bought from a member here months ago. I only opened the box to look at it. i forgot all about it. if anyone is interested, i'll sell it. Has bluetooth adapter as well.
Not a fan of the OEM 5 spokes. If I were to do 5-spoke I would definitely want something simple and more 'old-skool' looking like this:

I just installed the MoBridge Pro in my 997.1 this past weekend and, so far, it has been great. Install was not too bad and I could do it a second time much faster! I can make/take calls and stream music from pandora. I have an iPhone 6.
Volk te37s if u find them second hand. Very strong very light and looks modern. Do a search here for pics. I have two Techart formula gts fronts sitting in garage. But no rears.
