did you ever get a chance to put up the description and pictures?
Thanks!
Thanks everyone for your responses. I installed the dension kit myself today - took a few hours, just to be extra careful - and I'm not sure if it works yet until the dealer plugs their computer diagnostics into it to read a cdc. But, overall, pretty easy DIY job. DEfinately helped my confidence for future jobsI will post full job description and pictures soon!
Replacing a Becker CDR23 with a Grand Prix?
in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
Posted
I read someone where that it is possible to get iPod connectivity by replacing the Becker CDR23 with a Becker Grand Prix. I have the Bose system in my 2003 C4. I wrote to Becker and got this response which I can't make sense of.... not sure what DIN 1 refers to in contrast to the fiber optics connections.
Here's their response
Dear Sir
thank you for your inquiry.
If your car has a 1 DIN slot the installation and connection of our car stereo systems is possible.
We regret to inform you that we have no car specified details available. Our commercial devices do not support the remote control on your steering wheel. If an adapter or a frame should be necessary you will get this either directly from your distributor or

If the components in your car are connected over CAN bus,
the installation is a little bit difficult because lines must be set for lights, ignition and speedimpulse. Existing components such as sound system, remote via steering wheel, CD changer, free speech mechanism can not longer be used because they are attached by optical digital cable.
