PCA Spotlight: Installing the Porsche Classic Radio
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 гру 2016
- The Porsche Classic Radio is a desirable upgrade for those who regularly drive their classic Porsches. Crucially, it was designed to look stock and hook up directly to the factory wiring harnesses, making it a tasteful and easily reversible modification.
We showed you the main features of the radio in a previous video, so this time around we visited a local mobile electronics shop and filmed the installation. The radio was gifted to PCA by Porsche Cars North America, and then raffled off to John Maden of Shcattenbaum Region as the grand prize at our Open House in September. While we recommend a professional to install your radio, watch the video above if you’re interested to see the steps involved.
Thanks to DSI Mobile Electronics for the installation: www.dsielectronics.com - Авто та транспорт
Works well in my 1986 930. Thank you for the video Vu. Excellent. One suggestion I would make to Porsche, controls for audio playback are tiny. So trying to control, for example pause, audio, on the touchscreen is not so easy.
Thanks for the feedback!
@@PorscheClubofAmerica Will it notify me when I receive a text and read it.
Great video, Vu!
Very nice and clean install
Love the plant location
AWESOMEEE!!!!
Se ve un trabajo exquisito, me gustaría ver esta instalación en un Porsche 928
Would love to see this done to a 928
you people love your background music..
New eye test for the driving test - from the driver's seat, can you read the sat-nav on your Porsche Classic Radio. Looks good, though.
hi, so i have an 89 anniv edition 911, with the cd2 radio and amplifier under passenger seat....will this new nav radio easily plug and play with my car
Is there a gps antenna I can get with the wire going underneath? The stupid previous owner of my 944 S2 cut a square hole on the roof for an am/fm antenna that I want to hide with a gps antenna.
I love the aesthetics of this unit and was trying to figure out if I could retrofit it into my classic BMW M3. Because you showed the back of the unit and demonstrated the install I now have enough info to say that I think this wouldn't work in my application. I was hoping they would put an RCA or something on the back. I would need the stock Porsche harness to make it work. Thanks for posting this.
A professional audio installer would definitely be able to retro fit into another car. We installed one in a later model 911 before the new one was available for it.
@@PorscheClubofAmerica thanks for your reply. For that to work, you'd likely have to acquire the correct harness, no? Given the existing, very high cost of the headunit and the terrifying cost prospect of the Porsche wiring harness, I suspect it might be out of reach for most
How did you mount the e47 to the plow? Also where can I buy that controller?
I am trying to install this in my 1995 Porsche 928 GTS. the connections are not the same. Is there an adapter? What else do I need to do? thanks
Do you code cdr21 brother im just got car but radio show on code im check not have in car csr not have manual book
For everybody else there is Continental TR 7412 and now new retro Blaupunkt
Those are great options as well.
Cool
Wear is the apple car play?
Can this unit work for 955???
I understand that this will not work with a 996 (turbo), can you confirm that?
You need the PCCM Plus, the part number is 99664259000
Would love to see this in my 986...would it fit?
The one that fits inside yours is the PCCM Plus Radio, it's part number is 99664259000
would that work with a 944?
Yes it will.
How do one get repairs done on this new Porsche classic management radio?
What is the issue with yours?
@@PorscheClubofAmerica It does not power on and has a cracked screen. I took it to a repair shop and was told that they could not repair it.
Dimensions compatible for use on 86 944?
Yes, universal single DIN size.
i question whether this will work with my '90 944S2 cabriolet? The reason i ask, while i still have the original Blaupunkt Head Unit installed....my car has the antenna imbedded in the windshield. The car has less than 60K on the clock, always stored inside and through winter months,...but age takes its toll, and now the sound is questionable (I suspect that the speakers are shot....they're original as well!)...i have considered having the Blaupunkt professionally refurbished, with a jack and iPhone jack installed. The 'porsche radio' of this video is nice....but i bet the price (a price magnified simply by the word 'porsche' inscribed) is probably far more than what i am considering. and while the navigation would be nice...your screen seems small...and with a jack, my phone's Nav could "pipe in" directly to the refurbished Blaupunkt. maybe I'm way off base.
That is certainly a viable option that retains the original look. Good luck!
Does anyone know if this works in a 944 from 1986?
A good stereo shop can make it work.
Can it work with MY 2000, 996 gt3 ?
yes, but Porsche Classic now has a radio specifically for 996s. You can get at your local dealer.
I always have to watch PCAHQ videos at double speed. Everything is so slow and dragged out... Ironic because Porsches themselves are quick and nimble.
Tom tom xl ist better
Waze makes this obsolete.
Too damn expensive
