car audio upgrade - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

I have a Pioneer 940BT in my 2003 Boxster which I can definitely recommend. I have the head unit running the dash and rear speakers and an Alpine 2 channel amp (sitting where the Porsche one used to be) running the 2 subs in the doors. The Porsche subs are surprisingly good with the Alpine, I would definitely get rear speakers first if you dont have any.

Hi Nimbus117,

What the heck is that displayed on your screen? What program/package do you have that displays ACTUAL ODB info on your Nav Screen?

What is the app for that?

Also, the you are right about the rear speakers. It is the only way to get accurate sound replication. Still needs a sub IMHO.

Thanks in advance.

Its called Dashcommand, one of the Pioneer supported Appradio apps with the iphone. Connects via a wifi OBD transmitter - they cost $30 off ebay. Loads of different screens, dials, themes etc. If you forward to half way on this Pioneer video, you can see it in action:

I have the Porsche subs in the doors so rear speakers were a must for me.
