For a later car have a look at this thread, post #2. Too many words and not enough pictures but it's a start.

CD changers have been replaced by a thumb drive or a connection to the music colllection that lives on your smart phone.

I have an (relatively) antique Blaupunkt head unit in the console, and a matching CD changer (plus spare) on the shelf. The head unit has auxiliary audio in that connects easily to the headphone jack on the phone. I keep the head unit because it's appearance-matched to the car and console. I would love to have a similar-appearing head unit that includes more modern features, especially BT link to the phone. In the menwhile and for the limited times I drive with the radio on, the existing setup is fine.

Perhaps he's going old school and reinstalling a CR-1 and a CDC-1 along with the proper DIN connector cable (928 645 450 00)? I would endorse that activity....

Thank you all!
My car is a '92 GTS Euro.

ROb I eally likethe picture.I asked my near Porsche center for the cd changer cover ...NLA, sadly, butthis is beautiful...


I don't care about an ipod or USb connections on this car.Like dr Bob said, I prefer my Blaupunkt rcm 43 Bremen with the cd changer matching the center style and has the same age of te car.....
I like also to keep the car (mostly) original ...

That is a good start.

What color is your interior? I think I have two of the black carpet covers for the CDC-1. (don't ask why, I don't know.... )

It may be easier to run the line along passenger side. Need to remove rear seat and tuck wiring behind passenger rear quarter, and exit where upper photo shows (Robs pic)
