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.

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

POST 1Original post

I am not happy with the A/V options available in the Cayman (specifically, lack of bluetooth, ipod support and sat radio) and so I would potentially order just a plain old stereo and then rip it out and put in what I want. My question is, would a double din sized head unit fit? Specifically a unit that is 4 inches high and 7 inches wide. I am looking at the upcoming Pioneer AVIC-Z1. It has nicer navigation, built in bluetooth, ipod support and XM radio with their navtraffic service. Also, what about trim kits to fill up any opens spaces not covered by the new stereo?

POST 2Original post

I have no idea if it will fit properly, but sounds like a nice modification to try out and a nice unit.

POST 4Original post

I just looked at that unit for my Cayman did you get it?? Any problems anything I should look out for?? I want to use it with Sirius. Podman

POST 5Original post

It looks like some custom work may be needed. The following link has a boxster with the Pioneer radio installed http://custom.autos.yahoo.com/galle.../photos-car-10236;_ylt=AuSp_Za0HAW62dvJwSc65iRK.ckF?photo_cat=all&start=0&sel=1

POST 6Original post

I installed the AVIC Z1 in My Toureag and it works very well. Making it look correct in the dash requires talented installers.

Getting Bluetooth option as well with Sirius Tweeter is installing whole job about 5500.00 installed. When I get it all in I will upload pics should be about 3-4 weeks

POST 8Original post

Cant wait to see the pics. I thought the Cayman was to difficult to get aftermarket audio installed.

POST 9Original post

Well we shall see they took a look and say should be ok they have already done a lot of Boxsters We shall see soon enough

POST 10Original post

A guy over on ******** installed a double din unit...here's the link, hope it helps you out: http://forums.********.com/rennforums/showthread.php?t=279980

POST 11Original post

podman, have you read ' How to kill a Cayman S '?

POST 12Original post

Thanks guys I am going to do some more research before moving ahead. I will also get a guarantee from installer that if they screw it up they pay to have factory stuff reinstalled. Sometimes it sucks to have a great affinity for audio. However, my stock M5 stereo totally kills this stereo and it was made 5 years ago.

POST 13Original post

good luck podman...if you move forward please document and share with us. best, michael

POST 14Original post

Will do..... PS 18 year old saw Gator today and I quote 'Holy ****'

POST 16Original post

I should know this week what is possible with swapping out the base stereo unit, etc. as we are going to take the car in to have the electronics analyzed for add-ons such as ipod, sat radio, etc. I will report back the findings after they are through going over my car. Nothing is getting changed at this point, it is merely a diagnostic check, checking voltages, wiring diagrams, connection points, etc.
