These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Hi all, I would like to connect my ipod to my car stereo and have used a hard wire fm module thing!!! BTW, it is ****!!! Sounds awful! What a waste of £70. Anyway, I thought I may change the head unit for one that you can connect your ipod directly. I have the standard stereo in an 05 Boxter S. It does have a Bose system though so the standard sound good. My Q. is, has anyone changed their head unit and if so what works well and looks like the original. Cheers, Steve

POST 2Original post

Swapping head units on a car with Bose is tougher than you're hoping for. I wouldn't do it (besides losing the well-integrated look of the factory unit). Don't give up on your direct FM modulator just yet. Try improving the ground (earth wire). A better ground usually drastically improves the quality and reduces the noise.

POST 3Original post

Thanks for your help! I think the ground is good, but I will check and see if the sound is improved with another earth point. Once again, thanks for your help. Steve.

I installed this and works great! Bluetooth Hands Free Car Kits - Parrot USA

POST 7Original post

I've used the metra and this one: Amazon.com: Movies 2 Go FM100A FM Modulator with IST2 Isolation Transformer (Grey): Electronics The audiovox is quieter, and not as much noise as the metra. Works pretty well, I have it wired to the radio's power and just left it switched on. It only sounds bad on the highs of electric guitars. The metra would sound bad on high vocals One thing to note is that this setup has a filter on the POWER wire AND the RCA inputs.

POST 8Original post

I have a Boxster "S" 2005, with the Bose CDR-24 system. The one without the GPS , only radio and CD player. I'm looking for something wired to the stéreo (less complicated and expensive than the Dension option) to connect my IPOD or my Iphone . Is the Parrot is wired ?
