Hi guys, first time poster and Porsche owner,
I have a Boxster 2006 plate, with single CD/Radio and BOSE system, here in lies my confusion,
I have searched many forums seeing if it is possible to replace this CDR24 with an aftermarket double din unit.
Now, most forums tell me that the BOSE system is an active system and changing the headunits requires changing the sub and the speakers as they are specially connected.
However, one of my friends who has had his Audi done says you can have looms (spelling) fitted that just makes everything click together and then all I need to do it get the headunit, pay for the install and get a Porsche facia plate for the double din.
Can anyone confirm that this is possible? Or (as I have read on most forums) do installers tend to not want to do these BOSE installs due to the complexity?
Many thanks for your advice!
Matt
