gmcmurry Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 I want to install my Z3 in a 2009 Porsche Cayenne. It looks like I need something like the NAV-TV MOST HUR955 Fiber Optic interface. Its pretty expensive, but no problem if it is what I need. Anybody had any experience with Z series in a Porsche Cayenne? What about the steering wheel controls? Seems there is also a standard double din dash kit available (which is also pretty expensive). Again, no problem if it works.... I found this stuff... http://www.installer.com/cars/by_car.php?carid=8356 Thanks -- Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrettoomey Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 You will need the MOST HUR955 (includes the antenna adapter) and the Dash kit. Steering wheel controls will require a PAC SWI-PS or AXXESS ASWC. (I have a SWI-PS for sale in the classified section). Good Luck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gmcmurry Posted February 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I have the HURR955 coming but now find out that the factory radio is NOT the fiberoptic type. The guys from NAV-TV tell me that I will still need the HURR955 but that I will have to wire it myself. I hope it is for more than the antenna adapter. Not so sure what that might be... Those things are $500 So far, I have not been able to find any connectors for the 2009 Cayenne radio connector. I guess I may have to wire it myself. Does anyone know where I can find the pinout / colorcode for my 2009 Cayenne w/o the Bose Factory radio? Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrettoomey Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I could not find anything. You may have better luck in one of the many Porche forums. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gmcmurry Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I know it has been a long time since my original post, but my work takes me away for months at a time. I am now back to making this installation. I found an adapter from kit from Metra that is making the job easier. Its the Metra 70-9003 The adapter is normally for a VW/AUDI/BMW and isn't listed for the Cayenne at all. Lucky for me, my local shop guys were willing to just dig around and found a match. http://www.amazon.co...p/dp/B0002BEVAC I now have in my possession, a nice used Z3 that plugs into my 2009 Cayenne. I have a non-Bose version Cayenne. I purchased the HUR 955 MOST HUR 955 Kit from NAV-TV and it is on hand. The Metra kit handles the four speakers, ground and battery. Nothing else is available on the standard Porsche connector. I was able to run the Z3 by manually supplying power to the ACC (red) wire on the back of the Z3. Good documentation on the NAV-TV HUR 955 tells me that if I hook the CAN LO and CAN HI that the NAV-TV adapter will supply me with the other signals I need for proper operation of my Z3 HUR 955 --- Z3 ------------------------------------------- 12v switched out --- ACC (red) Illuminatioin out --- ILL (orange/white) VSS out --- Car Speed Input (pink) Reverse --- Reverse Purple This all seems like a bunch of money (The NAV-TV Adapter costs around $500) just for those signals. I think all I really need is the ACC and Illumination signal. I would think I could find those signals the old fashion way. Does anyone have any advice at this point. I am ready to finish this endless job. Also, there is so little room in the radio cavity on the Cayenne. Its going to be hard enough to find a place to put the Bluetooth and XM modules. If anyone has suggestions for that, I would love it as well. Thanks! Greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
