I have a 2003 Porsche Cayenne S without a CD Changer. In the side panel is a power connection but no fiber optical connector.  I purchased a CDC-4 and plugged the power connector and have power to the unit.  Question is if I purchase an optical waveguide cd changer to booster cable (955 642 304 00) can I unplug the optical ones I see going into the amplifier above the CDC bracket and plug the CDC-4 into the loop somehow?  Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

Thank you for the diagram.  I bought the CDC-4 from ebay and it did not have a kit with it. Behind the passenger side rear compartment I have the amplifier and CD holder already in place.  Looks like I need to purchase items M, N, H and K from the diagram and figure out how to wire the CDC-4 to the amp.

I phoned the local Porsche dealership to inquire about the Optical Waveguide and provided them with the information on what currently existed in the car. I told them I had the CDR-23 in the dash and the amp (bose system) in the back side compartment. I told them everything was back there (bracket, power) except gor the CDC-4. I told them I had the CDC-4 that I purchased from another source.  The parts salesman said I needed an optical waveguide and a connector. I told him I should just be able to take the optial waveguide and connect it to the amp above the CDC and then run it to the CDC.  He said that I had to remove the side panel and passenger seat to run an optical cable from the rear compartment to the CDR-24 radio in the front dash.  Does this sound correct?  

 

Thank you.
