Guys
I want to get my Wife one of the Porsche branded CD/Radio sets as fitted to the Boxster for her 924. Question-do they use standard DIN connectors or would I need to modify the wiring?
Many thanks.

Not sure about your exact swap, but I fitted a new sat nav stereo in my 1991 928 and had to modify/change the wiring. If the 924 is 80's technology and the Boxster is 90's technology, I don't think it will be straight swap. It is easy to change the wiring over though, so you should go for it. I hope that helps. :D

You might have to fit an ISO connector to the 924's wiring. This is, assuming that the Boxster stereo uses the ISO connector!

If it's one of these, it looks pretty standard to me:
