CarPlay is very cool; my Boxster has CarPlay enabled PCCM.
Both cars have the Garmin mini dash cams

I bought this one - https://hieha.com/products/portable-wireles...-deluxe-edition
These are selling for around $40.00 on tiktok
I removed the ball mount and it connected right up to my existing ash tray mount. I will post a picture later.

To each his own, but there is a concern for tech in performance cars that is worthy of consideration.

Why not just replace the single din stereo with one that has AA/CP built in? They start at ~$55 and depending on the unit can really clean up the look of the dash. I grabbed one of these kinds of units for ours and its been great. No knob on the model I bought, so when it's off it's just a blank black panel that blends in. Installed a small Kenwood amp inside the console and a nice pair of 6.5" speakers in the footwells for a little better audio quality at the same time.

AA/CP Stereos on Amazon

The one I bought in this thread works, but is too slow to be useable. I push a button and have to wait several seconds for anything to happen.

Excellent analysis in this video.
Nice nod in there to the Porsche GT department as well.
Thanks for posting.

I got this one last year but never installed it, have been on the fence about it. I’ll probably put it in the next 914 build though.

My experience with Porsches and my TR6 is that the durn cars go where you look. Great for driving a nice road, but if I get distracted the car wants in on the game. Maybe a heads up display.
