Is that so difficult to fix the original head unit? With a CD changer it`s still not a bad option, even if it`s old.

I like my Porsche AM/Fm/cd player. The only reason I have a "smart phone" is for navigation.

What's a CD?

I prefer to have something more functional. AF/FM and CD is not very useful anymore. I live in SoCal and navigation is a must.

Would it have been "so difficult" to fix or replace the original unit? No. And I thought long and hard about keeping everything stock, everything vintage. Finally, I decided to go with something modern. Functionality and fun became more important than the original parts. There were too many Boxsters made for it ever to become a truly collectible car. A Boxster is a "driver," and so I opted for something that made driving it more fun.

But you stay in the olden days, Grandpa! (I'm kidding! )
