Ok How Can I uninstall the alarma cover...?¿
Thanks
Stick a screwdriver under the edge and pry it off. Very simple.

Where Can I mount the GPS Antenna¿?
Maybe in the same with alarm sensor...?¿
How can I unistall/install..and the wire..?
I mounted mine up where the factory GPS antenna goes - in front of the alarm sensor and light. Pretty easy really, but you do have to cut plastic a bit to fit the wire in there (not too bad, I used a hacksaw blade in my hand). You can easily route the wire down to the back of the radio.

Cannot find anything in the manual regarding uploading an image to the unit
Perhaps then, it doesn't actually support this feature.

Great instructions purchased a JVC AVX820 and completed the install
One question i have is how to get the Porsche logo showing on my screen...i have down loaded the jpeg and put this on a usb drive but cannot see where to download it onto the double din unit
Any ideas
I'd suggest reading the manual that came with your JVC unit, or contacting their support group. I could tell you how to do it with my Kenwood, but I doubt that'd be of use to you :)

woops sorry, my car's an mk1 1999. thanks for the information! i'm mainly concerned with just the price for the head unit, since i love diy-ing things. so if i read your post correctly i should be prepared to spent a bit over a grand?
Really depends on the head unit you want. You could spend $50, could spend $3000. Up to you.
I did the Kenwood DNX-7140 install myself, finished it up this past weekend. I just wish it wouldn't lock up when I plug my phone into the USB... details...

U still haven't said how much the kit+wire hardness cost?
The Interior mirror was $150
The External mirror kit was $235
The wireing harness.... Porsche want $309 for it.
Have you a part number for the interior mirror? I'll order one today, I really miss the auto-dim from my Audi S4.
Thanks!

Michael,
If you become a contributing member, you may ask Loren for the wiring diagram for your specific case. That's what I did!
I've done a bit of research since I first posted, found all the info I've needed, I just didn't know that the Bose amp took speaker-level inputs.
My plan is to add the four missing pins to the harness from Euro Motor Speed, I've already been in contact with trieullionaire about it.
Thanks everyone for confirmation I'm on the right track :)

Hi, I just pulled my stock CCR220 from my 996 Carrera, and my car's yellow audio line out connector doesn't seem to have any pins on it other than the one to switch the factory amp on....
Suggestions? I'm sure I could wire the speakers individually, but the kit I got from euromotorspeed did not have all of the wires for this connection.
My car does NOT have MOST, but there is an amp in the luggage compartment, and all of the speakers are labeled Bose, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't have these wires.
Hi,
That's because the Bose amp takes speaker level inputs, instead of the more common way, i.e., line level inputs. If you want to install a new head unit, you can either use the Bose amp by feeding it with speaker level outs of the new head unit (easier way) or remove the Bose amp and feed the speakers directly with your new head unit.
Interesting, the kit I got did not include enough pins on the harness connectors to connect these inputs. I'll contact them and see if they can provide the extra wires.
Thanks for the info!
