Thanks for the video. I installed my unit this weekend and the video really helped. Also, the quality is great and its so nice to be able to keep the stock look and use the controls
Did this a couple years ago...One of the best upgrades that i have done while i waited for the OEM pccm+ upgrade to arrive! Unfortunately i could never get my factory mic to work, although the kit says it will work with original mic setup. Hopefully pccm+ fixes
@@GenoFoster Yes so annoying! Just received it. I’m a bit hesitant to connect the microphone due to aesthetics. Do you use it a lot and does it work well?
@@carlatashkadeh5890 This was installed on a friend's Cayenne and he wanted to use the microphone more. He said it's pretty good quality. But you are right about the aesthetics part, wonder if there could be some way to route it to the center panel of the headliner to make it less noticeable
"a little hard to reach" it was fucking impossible! haha. plus they zip-tied another cable right in front it which made pulling it out impossible. :/ had to take the whole changer out to get the cable off. oh well. Thanks for the video, good info!
Interesting, i'm cinnecting to a CDR23 so that version would have been useful. My instructions say connect to constant live power but not to splice into the existing loom. I was going to piggy back to the fuse board..?
I got a question. I have the cd changer, but dont really use it. But if I get this kit can I still listen to the CDs if I insert them in the main unit? Thanks
I'm about to buy one of my Cayenne and the version with PCM and CD charger, so if I understand correctly I should work on the charger and not on the PCM with the various cables or am I wrong?😅
What’s the sound quality like? I found that with my similar adapter on my S500, it muffled the sound a bit compared to the CD volume and quality. Much better than those radio adapters, but still not matching the CD quality.
Installed it on 2004 porsche cayenne turbo last night it did not work. Bluetooth works. I got bose on mine. I ordered it on the link you shared from Amazon. I finally look at the manual says it is for Mercedes Benz.
ok, it took an hour to get cord off the back of the cd changer. where does the bypass go? on the loose cord, or in the the changer. the loose plug seems like it looks nothing like the male end of the bypass. im about 5 mins away from returning this to amazon
If the bypass doesn't fit on the cable you unplugged, you unplugged the wrong cable from the CD changer. It should plug into the loose cable acting as a bypass
