I swapped the PCCM+ on my car for the GT3 centre section delete and a continental headunit - I really prefer the look.

So after looking at after market options for Apple CarPlay and listening to the nah sayers especially Porsche saying that the single din PCCM units are only for 993 and earlier I sort of gave up and went with a Continental unit with dab and phone connectivity and it worked fine and looked good, I was still hankering after an Apple CarPlay option, I then had the opportunity to buy a PCCM single din unit, boxed with all the parts including the maps.

I have today had it fitted by ACS audio in Swindon, took a couple of hours and it looks amazing, sounds better then either the Continental or the original Becker unit. I’ve also had the USB block put under the dash rather than in the cubby, which would mean drilling the back of the cubby and I would lose this valuable space, it doesn’t interfere with my knee and I’m over 6 feet tall. Very pleased with this option, so for anyone considering this option, IT CAN BE DONE.
For clarity, I never went with the double din as I don’t like the look in the cabin, I much prefer the single din look, fits better with the age of the cabin, and yes you can see the maps etc, not much different from my iPhone screen.
the single din system fit cars with single din, nicely done
my old back in the day GT3 with the Becker Cascade, at the time Apple has just launched the 1st iphone !
Thanks for sharing your installation. It looks great. Couple of questions if I may, 1) was there the option to have the unit above the climate control panel? 2) do you know how they handled the DAB aerial? Was it connected into your existing windscreen aerial?
Thanks in advance, James
Never seen the radio above
But assuming the cables and wiring for the CCU are long enough, then it might be possible ….
The issue might be the depth behind, might not exist for a standard single DIN unit

There are some cheap as chips aliexpress single DIN headunits, I'm tempted to try...as I can't really justify the cost of the Porsche single DIN Carplay headunit
