I added the 987 rear speaker with subwoofer to my 2000 Boxster S

[lskolnick]

Fairly easy setup. Run power, RCA cable, speaker wires, and amp turn on signal to the area.

Much improved sound over just the front speakers.

interesting - it fits with the 986 rollbar ok?

[lskolnick]

It fits just like the 986 version, and secures to the rear deck the same way.

[The Radium King]

cool. any idea what the quality/volume would be if you just ran with the rear unit and no door or dash speakers?

Does this only work for 986:es with the BOSE (MOST) sound packages?

[lskolnick]

It could work for any 986. I don't have Bose.

Do you happen to have the part number?

[Smallblock454]

Has this unit an integrated amp?

If yes, how will get the MOST bus signal to the amp?

[azlvr]

I know where 2 are at $187.50 ea.

i have the stereo gutted out of my car (weight reduction you know!) but it would be cool if i could stuff a small bluetooth amp into the rear speaker unit, run some switched power back to it, and drive it from my iphone - a stereo system that i could pull out of the car when at the track. not sure i would get enough usable volume out of it, however.

and, i have the 987 engine cover, so was uncertain whether to use the 986 or 987 rear speaker unit, as didn't know if they would fit with the cover/roll bar; good info to know.

I looked at ripping out the MOST system and all the associated stuff. In the end I bought a Bose Mini Soundlink II. Cheaper than a head unit. No wiring, 10 hrs battery and sounds great. Also goes into the garden, work and anywhere else.

I use this same system; works great!

[The Radium King]

crazy - i have two of those at home. loud enough for cruising around?

[Traco]

Perfect for cruising. If going for a proper burn I prefer the flat six sound track screaming to the redline so it gets thrown in the glovebox then.

Cool. Please send me some info. Thanks.

I had one of those, got stolen by one of my sons jackass friends. . Couldnt proove which one, stole set of headphones also.

I just dont like loose things sitting around driving normal and an emergency stop things go flying.

[DarkStar]

OP, That is seriously too cool. Looks a ton better than the factory bose!

[lskolnick]

I contacted pdwight about making a harness to make this mod plug and play. He didn't think too many would be interested. Let him know if you are.

Oh I'm not, I would be if I didn't have a crazy system for my car. But it is pretty awesome.

Hi,

Just read your post on addiing the Bose sub shelf to the system. I just purchased one my self and would like to hook it up to a aftermarket Clarion head unit in my 987 Boxster.

Would you be able to explain me the meaning of the wires ( colour codes ) which are connected to the subwofer build in AMP. Ihave

Would be much appreciated.

Thx in advance.
