I recently installed my mObridge Audio device in my Cayenne Turbo, and wanted to share a bit of experience for anyone considering the same path. I opted to do the install up front in case I needed to access the device for firmware updates. The rest of the options for the device are easily relocated, but to use the SD card access for music or for flashing the firmware requires physical access. The best location I found was the panel directly behind the glove box. There is a single black screw holding the black body panel on, and once removed the entire panel drops down with easy access to the power as well as the rear to the PCM. The wiring was easy EXCEPT the part required to bypass the CDC. There is a loopback device that sends the MOST channel from the CDC to the mObridge box that requires the CDC be dismounted. To remove the CDC is a nightmare, since the body panel in front of it appears to be necessary to remove. I don't have a picture of that, but you can easily imagine how ugly it gets to remove all that. Overall, I'm not real pleased. I expected much better controls and response. You cannot skip songs on a playlist under the current revision of firmware. You can skip around under the "all songs" playlist, but if I want to hear YYZ, I'm screwed on a 160gb iPod. I fully expect it to be resolved in a firmware update, but I'm still a bit pissed off. At least it makes a decent OEM looking install! I'm working on a custom insert for my center dash piece, where the drink holders go. The insert is currently removeable, and created a perfect location to store an ipod (fat chance of actually drinking a soda when riding with me, that's for sure).
