Wireless CarPlay and AndroidAuto in Porsche 911 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 touch screen PCM3.1 

I just installed this and am very happy with the result. Whilst very helpful, this video makes it look a bit easier than it will be for the average person like me. Here are some tips that might be useful. 1. Do it in daylight if you can - I did it in a badly lit car park, which didn’t make it any easier. Download the video to a phone or laptop so you can follow along. 2. It’s worth covering the screen to protect it from scratches - I taped a piece of cardboard over it. 3. Likewise, I put a cloth over the gear lever as the unit will rest against it during the installation. 4. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html Removing the antennas was the first difficult part. The key is to make sure the release clip is pressed. Rather than my finger, I found it easier to use two screwdrivers, one to press the clip and the other to lever the antenna out. 5. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html Opening the casing was not as easy as it looks in the video. Firstly, there was a sticker on one side that needed to be cut. Secondly, it was very stiff and needed a lot of force. I ended up doing it like this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MvTrdPw_nB8.html 6. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html Plugging the cables into the motherboard - I found this very tricky. They did not slide in easily, and I was worried about bending one of the pins. I did it by getting one end in, then squeezing the connecter and the port until it was fully in. 7. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html when installing the cables in the car, you may need to move the two-pin audio connecter with the green cable from the existing harness to the new one. Otherwise, you will have no sound. I think this applies if your car has the Bose audio system. Removing this connecter was a little tricky, but basically, there’s a small clip on the harness you press, and it just slides out. I also needed to unbind this cable from the others as its short length made everything too tight. 8. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html I found that locating the USB cable to the glovebox made it hard to close. I actually put it on the passenger side of the center console, as then you can use the drinks holder as a phone stand! [long-term update - this wasn’t the best decision. A dedicated phone holder is needed. Plus for neatness and ease of access, better if the cable is on the driver’s side] 9. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html the key to getting the harness back in easily is to push the clip fully open 10. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html putting the unit back in was not easy. As it shows in the video, try and bunch everything up at the back. Mine didn’t quite go in flush, but after I screwed it back in, it was fine. 11. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RbIn-z8U6lE.html replacing the side panels is a bit fiddly. The key is to push the end in more than you think you need to. Then look to see that the clips are aligned. With the system up and running, a couple of things aren’t documented: to use the car mic for phone calls, in the unit settings, you need to set “original mic” to ON. In order to switch back to Carplay from the car interface, you need to hold the INFO button.

This is one of the best step by step installation instructions I have seen. Good Job !

Thank you so much for making this video! Really helpful

Awsome...what I was exactly looking for..Thank you

Very helpful video..thank you

Hello, how do I know if my radio is PCM 3.1 or CDR 31 since it is the one that comes from the factory? Thanks

Thanks for the video I followed the instructions and made my life easy. Anyone had an issue with the microphone? When I call the mic doesn’t work!

Does this kit work with Bose & multifunction steering wheel controls? Many thanks 🤔

looks like a simplified kit as mentioned with less cables. However, I am hesitant to order on since there doesn't seem to be much support. I see no replies to the questions asked and gajones76 has been very helpful with info, but that's about it. I would like to hook up the rear and forward cameras as well, but no mention of that. At least I know with JoyAuto, the support is there when/if needed, and that's one of the most important criterion for ordering a kit in my opinion. I'll wait to see if questions are answered or not before making my final decision. Great video, just need to cover all areas i.e. camera install, and what were those other wires you did not plug into anywhere?

Hi, I have a 911 carrera 2014, I'm interested in setting up car play, now which rear camera is compatible with it?

excellent

Will this kit work on a 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman S? I believe the PCM is the same.

My Bluetooth connection is not working presently. Can I assume that installing this will cure that in addition to adding carplay?

I really need this but for a 2008

Do you need to disconnect your battery prior? It appears not. Just ordered this.

Does the sound auto correct for burmie sound system. Thanks.

how can i mount an android carplay in a acura tsx2004 without it being an aftermarket? thanks you

Don’t we have to disconnect battery and also keep the key away for 30 Mins?

Can you use spotify or google maps?

Will this work for 2012 Porsche carrera s 991.1

hi does this affect the bose audio quality?

Has anyone connected the rear/front cameras?

What do you do if everything works, but you can't get any sound?

I have installed and CarPlay working but absolutely no sound not on the radio, Apple car play, phone - no sound at all! Anyone help?

will this work with the 981 2013 Boxster s w PCM 3.1?

WHAT ABOUT THE MODULE ?

Coooool,, what would this cost

Hi does this work for a 2014 981 Boxster with PCM 3.1? Thank you… .
