  1. Cayenne Owners, We are seeking one 03-09 Cayenne (w/ Bose) and one 03-09 (non Bose) in the Tampa Bay Area interested in replacing the original radio or PCM with an aftermarket head unit. If interested, please give us a call at 877.408.3876 for details. Kind regards, Loi T. Owner - Euro Motorspeed
  2. Out of curiosity, does your original factory radio still get reception when reinstalled? I would use that first to establish that there is a signal coming through the radio antenna to your original radio. Once you confirm this, I would reinstall the aftermarket radio...and check to make sure the antenna adapter is connected properly. If you still do not receive a signal, I would take a meter tester to see if there is a break in the antenna adapter...if so, you may need a replacement antenna adapter to replace the defective one.
  3. Hi Robert, Yes, the kit works for an AVIC D3. In fact, our kit works for the majority of head units out in the market. -T.
  4. Hi, We just did a CDR30 replacement a couple weekends ago on a 2010 Cayman. It was only equipped with the standard 4 speakers, no amp...so the install was fairly easy. But it is pretty much the same install as the Gen 1, with the exception of the quad lock connector and wiring up for illumination and reverse signal. I've posted some of these photos on the other forums already but check it out if you haven't seen it. The customer is going to send some photos w/ the Porsche decal applied in silver...so I will post those as well when I get them. Cheers!
  5. Hi Demiano, It will work for a 1998 986 w/ PCM set up as well. Happy New Year!
  6. No problem at all, looking forward to see some interior shots once you figure out a solution that works best for you. Thanks for the positive feedback as well. Cheers!
  7. Hi Andrew, I am assuming you had purchased one of our powder coated aluminum bezels. Just out of curiosity what brand and model head unit did you purchase, as we have rarely ever come across this issue it would be helpful to know. As for cutting the bezel, that will be a huge bear even for us to have it custom cut. You may be better off using the MDF material to fabricate a bezel to the specs of your head unit in this instance. You can just use the aluminum bezel as a template for the outer dimension to make life a bit easier. If you go the MDF route, just email, call or PM us should you want to return the bezel you had purchased. We have a 30 day return policy for unused components, so that you're not stuck with an item you can't use. Happy holidays! -Trieullionaire
  8. Greetings everyone! We hope everyone had a great weekend!!! Well, after a lot of reviews from our customers, we've been taking notes & decided 3 months ago to make a few enhancements to our 9X7 2-Din Kit. Our Version 2 kit was finally completed as of just late last week. We think some of modifications we've made will aid the efficiency of the overall installation of our kits. We posted images to illustrate the modifications and its function(s). Check out the link below and tell us what you think, we would love to get some feedback (good or bad :huh: ). Again, thank you to everyone who has contributed to this thread and many others on Renntech. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...#ht_2045wt_1167 For those of you with the Bose set up, we will have an upgraded kit which includes an additional harness adapter for use with an aftermarket amp or other various set ups using resistors. The adapter will allow you to connect to the factory speaker wire harness without any need to cut, splice or wire tap these wires at all. Attached are a few pictures of the adapter and the vehicle's speaker wire harness that plugs into it. We'll have these adapters solddered with the appropriate factory matched wires in the near future but for the time being they will provided as shown. Sincerely yours, Trieullionaire Euro MotorSpeed :drive:
  9. Hi Guys, A couple things I wanted to clear up and hopefully will make life much easier for folks who install our kits in the future. We've included a cage sleeve for quite a while now with our kits, and it is usually already slid onto the cage for buyers. I guess it would help to understand how it works right...as it is not in our DIY which was based on the very first install we did on my '00 Boxster. The purpose of the cage sleeve is to create a lip on all sides of the cage (the sides, top and bottom). This lip stops the cage from falling through the factory opening, and sits flush to the factory opening. This effortlessly allows you to set the depth and height of the cage, so that you don't need to do any measuring like in the original DIY. Anyhow, I have included some photos to show how everything comes together...in pictures of course! Just a little preface, this was my Saturday afternoon project converting the '00 Boxster radio surround area to the 03-04 version with the thin cup holder option. The install is complete and it looks awesome and I love my new cup holder, I just have to clean up my car and I'll have some pictures to show in the weeks to come.
  10. Hey guys, Here are pics I took today from a Tampa customer who purchase the new kit with the factory textured bezel. The install was on a 2001 911 Turbo. I think it took his friend two days to complete the install, it looks pretty fabulous up close. Cheers, Trieullionaire
  11. You can purchase these uphostery and trim tools from Harbor Frieght. Unfortunately, we don't believe there's Harbor Freight over in Europe.

  13. You can connect to the head unit. Provided you used the RCA wires to connect to a front amp, you should have the speaker wires from your head unit still available for use. Use the speaker wire output designated for the rear speakers so that you have the fade function.
  14. Hi, We just received your payment, we'll ship your item out today! Again, thank you, we know you will like the new bezel! Trieullionaire 727-643-2207 Euro MotorSpeed ww.euromotorspeed.com
  15. Hey Guys, Hope everyone is doing great! We have some very good news to share. With the overwhelming request to have a matte black version of our 986/996 2 DIN bezel, we've went a couple notches above to come up with a bezel that I think many of you will be very pleased with. Anyhow, I have attached a few photos for you guys to check out. In most of the pictures, you can see the factory climate control bezel (for the lower console) next to the new textured bezel.
  16. Btw, it is possible to set up the harnesses from our kit to plug into the head unit using the line level RCA connectors. And then simply plug in the black and brown connectors to the double stack harness and yellow connectors to the red harness. We recently did it for a forum member's 02 Targa w/ Bose system successfully. If you prefer to do it this way, please let me know.
  17. Hey guys, I got Michael's email last night in regards to this issue and want to address the topic so everyone has the right information. The kit works for the 996 vehicles w/ either the Bose or the PCM set up - a minor modification is required to the wire harnesses that we include in our kit. If you have a non MOST vehicle w/ Bose or PCM set up, essentially 4 additional speaker wires are required that plugs into the black double stack harness we provide. It will make installing much simpler... -Plug the vehicle's black and brown connector into the black double stack harness of the kit -Plug the yellow connector (which is your amp remote turn on wire) to our red harness -Connect the speaker wires of our double stack harness to the speaker wires of your new head unit Anyhow, we will have some of these kits made available. Just give us a call or email us if you have this type of set up, so that we can include the additional wires for the harness. Cheers, Trieullionaire
  18. OMG...This looks AWESOME. I have replaced everything in my 97 boxster, finally putting an Alpine double-din in after moving the instrument cluster....I've lived with the 1cm gap at the top for years, and now I feel so GHETTO. Hats off! Where are you in regards to a universal mounting kit that would work for me, and how hard would it be for me to get some custom trim from you? Thanks! Bhavesh Hi Bhavesh, The kits we have available is compatible with your 97 Boxster and Alpine 2 Din headunit. Shoot us an email or PM us if you're interested in getting the kit (cvt929@yahoo.com). Thx, Trieullionaire
  19. Heck no! We wanna know about the excellent bodywork :D Here are a few pics of the stainless steel door sills for folks with the OEM upgrade.
  20. Does anyone have this picture in high res? Thank you in advance! Trieullionaire LOL - that is as "high res" as Porsche gets in their service manuals. Thank you for the quick reply!
  21. Does anyone have this picture in high res? Thank you in advance! Trieullionaire
  22. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...dpost&p=719 The "horseshoe" you have is a 1 piece instead of 3 pieces shown in the DIY, detaching the 1 piece "horseshoe" & removing the wiring harnesses is similar. The kit for the 2003-04 uses a different antenna adapter vs the 97-02. Here is a picture of the antenna adapter we include for the 03-04 models:
  23. We've been getting too many requests now to ignore what you guys want. We've been looking into making the bezel out of high grade metal & having it textured powder coated in a flat black. The powder coating application will make the bezel VERY scratch resistant and extremely durable! Unfortunately, our fabricator's lead time is always a couple of months but they do awesome work. Any thoughts on continuing the glossy black bezels? Trieullionaire EuroMotorSpeed.com cvt929@euroMotorSpeed.com 727.643.2207
