Please do share some pics.

So if I understand this correctly. You changed the head unit, the amp and the speakers? You couldn't reuse the same speakers or it was that they were of low quality??

Also, did you have to rewire everything? (I remember that if the amp was there, it means that the connectivity is via fiber)

Did you do the job yourself? Did you check how much are charging to get that job done?

I am a bit in doubt whether do it myself or have a professional do it. In my old Miata, I could make and break without any issue. But I am a bit intimidated by the technology on the Boxster.

Also, does it look more or less factory? That is one of the killers for me. Any aftermarket stereo will make it less factory and loose that charm of the original stereo.
