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.

I'm purchasing a Gen 2 997 and the only option that I really wanted that the car doesn't have is the Universal Audio Interface. I'm wondering if anyone has added this factory interface to their Gen 2 car and how difficult the install is ( if it's possible).
It is possible and can be done at the dealership. They actually have to remove the center console and wire the piece in to place. It should cost no more than $750 to have it done at your local dealer in a matter of a few hours. We add these regularly, your local dealer should have them in stock.
Thanks Jason...I appreciate the info.
First of all, shame on Porsche for not making this standard equipment on all models. It is akin to not including a radio this day in age. Second, $750 as a add-on is bloated. As an example, I added an aux input to my 2003 BMW 3er shortly after I bought it in 2003 for $32 in parts, and 20 minutes of my time (and a small drill bit). $750 strikes me as highway robbery (no pun intended).
You're right, it is crazy that it's not standard, and the price for the adapter is nuts. I spent $200 for a factory ipod adapter for my E46 M3 ( installed it myself) a few years ago and thought that was high. The factory Porsche adapter must be around $400-500...
Standard or not it does work great, especially if you have the PCM,
There is a TSB for this install, for the '06-'08 cars, here. I imagine the install for the gen 2 cars is similar. Planet-9 - Downloads - Music Player Interface TSB
