Metra 70-1784?
Metra 70-1787?
Any research I've done keeps turning up they only works with the OEM Bose amplified system?
Anyone with a base Boxster who's been down this road already care to shed some light on this for me?
Much appreciated!
Pelican has a good write up on this. I have not done the upgrade yet myself but have also thought of updating mine.

Pelican Technical Article: Changing Your Boxster Stereo Head Unit / Installing Boxster Ipod Integration - 986 / 987

They used the Metra brand, PN: 70-1787 (VW/Bose AMP Integration), and the Euro antenna adapter kit from Scosche, PN: VWA-KB

Their article also includes some nice images and wiring diagrams.

Hope this helps
