After Market Stereos

Post by paul@keen-home.co.uk »

Hi Folks,

I'm new to the forum and could use two bit of advice. 1., if this isn't the correct place, where should I post 2.

2. Does anyone know of an aftermarket Stereo that will enable me to retain all of the car controls within the PCM2.1 system? I've a 2006 Cayman S, with BOSE.

First reply on our shiny new forum.

OK I am quite happy with it here.

As far as I know various manufacturers do both steering wheel interfaces and system interfaces. You need to chat to one of the car radio specialists with who does what. Not a car accessory shop. They'll have done it. A mate had one of the Chinese android units in which he had an interface which did both the nav panel.

Thanks Jim,

I'm in the North of Scotland. Don't suppose you know of any specialist up here?

Sorry, no. Ask around, have a chat to some local companies. Ask questions, especially concerning the interfaces. If they sound puzzled move on... :mrgreen:
