Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

The only problem was that he had been sold the wrong fiber optic kit, and had to run over to the dealer to pic up the correct one.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OK....whilst sat at work watching Ebay I saw an auction for a brand new CD changer and optical cable for a 996 with no bids and only a few minutes left to run.....well I thought I don't have a CD changer and I am sure it is a worthwhile addition so I made the opening bid and won the auction. Now while the package is being sent to me can anyone point me in the general direction of some installation instructions so I can read what I have let myself in for. I was quoted over £900 by the OPC to buy and fit the changer last week but now have the parts for £350 so would rather fit myself and feel really smug when I tell the mrs that I have just saved £550 [ ] (rather than spent £350). TIA

POST 2Original post

I have the instructions for fitting the CDC-4 if they would help. If you send me an email I will attach them to a reply.

POST 3Original post

A local 2003 (MOST) Boxster owner did it himself, but he is good at things like that. The only problem was that he had been sold the wrong fiber optic kit, and had to run over to the dealer to pic up the correct one. Then once hooked up you need a PST2/PIWIS to tell the car that there is now a changer. But our friendly local mechanic did it for free.
