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.

Moved to a new house with one less garage bay so with 2 kids both with cars, we needed to thin the herd (and the wife said we could get rid of a car but not a kid) so we sold my son's old Volvo sedan he'd been driving through high school, traded my wife's Benz on a new Civic Si for my son, I tuned the 2001 Boxster S into a daily driver (once the snow melted) and the wife is driving my X5.
The Boxster only has 28K miles and is in perfect shape however I really missed the integrated USB and Bluetooth of the newer cars and I have never been happy with the rear speaker kit I added in the rear compartment as you couldn't really hear them.
Let me say now, that I am not an audio nut and would not appreciate a high-end install like many of you. I wanted a reasonably priced unit that looked good once installed. And just as important to me was Bluetooth and the ability to seamlessly stream my iPhone nav app through the radio.
I bought a Kenwood single DIN from Crutchfield and installed it last week. Looks great and sounds better than stock... and the best part is the stock front speakers are connected through the RCA connectors (and through the factory amp) and the rear aftermarket kit (the eBay version that looks like the OEM kit) plays through the internal Kenwood amp so you can now hear them.
Nice simple, cost effective upgrade and I can go back to stock if I sell the car.
I'm very happy with it and happy with Crutchfield's customer service as I had a few install questions they talked me through.

That's funny! I installed a Kenwood Bluetooth unit this weekend too. Used the factory amp and speakers. Sounds great, and I was able to get a fairly close match of the ac unit lighting to one of the colours of the Kenwood.
I also moved the AC unit down to the bottom slot, and put the Kenwood just above it. Next is the Nexus 7 tablet, that will go in the now empty double din space I have. I have the tablet hacked so it will charge, but allow me to use a USB hub at the same time. So I can connect all kinds of neat things to it. I'm just testing it for a few days before I do the install.
