Porsche 911 997 / 987 Cayman Boxster car radio with CarPlay & Android Auto
Upgrade your Porsche 911 (997) and Cayman/Boxster (987) with a modern aftermarket car radio system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The unit gives the car a more contemporary multimedia experience with navigation, music, calls, apps and entertainment directly on the screen.
This car radio is not an ordinary universal radio. The model is made for the Porsche 911 (997) and Porsche Cayman/Boxster (987), so the frame, cables and fit are designed around the car as standard, provided the car’s radio fascia and existing setup match this model. This gives a neater integration in the dashboard and makes installation more straightforward compared with a fully universal solution.
With wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto you can easily connect your iPhone or Android phone and use the most important functions while driving. You can use Google Maps, Apple Maps, Spotify, phone calls, messages and compatible apps, among other things, directly via the screen.
Supported model
- Porsche 911 (997)
- Porsche Cayman (987)
- Porsche Boxster (987)
Important about sound and controls
If your Porsche has a sound system from a brand such as BOSE, JBL or Harman Kardon, you must buy an optical module (89 €) before the radio can produce sound.
Steering wheel controls are not supported on this model. On the other hand, the screen has a physical rotary knob for volume, so you can easily and intuitively turn the volume up and down.
