The JVC bezel is not tall enough - it would leave a gap between itself and the cupholder, so the Connects2 bezel was definitely needed. As was the wiring harness to connect the head unit and replacement amp to the factory wiring.

The hole in the dash is taller than a standard double DIN so an asymmetrical bezel is a must.

The JVC cage fit as it was, I just needed to fix it to the Porsche plastic frame using a couple of screws..
