Has anyone installed a DIN2 or DIN1 sized aftermarket radio to Cayenne? I'm concerned about the faceplate as the standard mount place is wider than DIN. Does anyone happen to manufacture a faceplate to accommodate a DIN2 player to the mounting hole?

I put an Alpine IVA-300 DVD player in my Cayenne. The installer had to custom make a faceplate out of wood. There are no kits that have been made up to now for this truck. As far as width is concerned, the Cayenne's radio should be wider than most aftermarket radios.

What do you do with the wiring to the speakers?? When you remove the CDR23, are the speakers connected by copper wires/RCA to theCDR23?

And are the speakers connected to the MOST bus in anyway? Or are they just connected via standard copper wires?

The wiring to the speakers are relayed to the new head unit. The CDR23 unit is concealed and plugged in underneath the dash. I left it there so nothing is left unplugged and I don't receive any error codes...

What do you mean by 'relayed to the new head unit'? The speaker cables at the CDR23 are standard copper/RCA connectors or looks something like optical fibers connected?

If I understand you correctly ... there are no longer any speaker cables connected to the CDR23 head unit but only to the Alpine head unit? Do you have any pictures you can post here?

That's correct, no speaker wires are connected to the CDR23...

Sorry I don't have any pictures of the install...
