went with the Kenwood Excelon KDC-X794. Modern look, but classy and clean without a lot of colors or flashy crap.

Actually it's the 305s - but the 303 is identical in looks.

Then I went to this webpage http://www.discountcarstereo.com/detail.aspx?ID=993 and ordered the cable for the iPod. IMPORTANT - depending which iPod you will use you need an adapter to ensure that the iPod will get charged as well instead just playing music. I use this adapter for my iPod nano http://www.discountcarstereo.com/detail.aspx?ID=1320 The adapter for the iPod goes into the CD player plug. So Either CD player or iPod. Both won't be able to use.
To make the iPod work on the AUX you need to set it up with the radio which may takes 3 minutes. Helpful information are the attached PDF and zip/PDF files.
I also upgraded my speaker in the CAB with OEM look. I got the matching speakers and instruction for installation from this company [http://www.caraudioinnovations.com/porsche.htm I didn't go with any sub or whatsoever. Just told them I want a system to upgrade the factory speaker.
Overall I like the setup. In general I listen to the engine but sometimes for longer drives I enjoy music too.

Another install of ida-x305.
I only listen to an iPod when I drive, so I don't mind the lack of other functions.
It's not that intrusive in appearance, but I wish the lighting could be changed from the blue to white or orange - & what ever happened to the traditional Alpine green?

Hello!
In Europe, Becker indianapolis pro is quite an attraction. It has Bluetooth, mp3, navi, all in such a small display. I addapted and dismantled an Porsche CDR 220 in wich i ingested the electronics from an indianapolis pro. Now i have the best radio available, 2rds tuners, navi, cd, mp3, bluetooth, in one elegant and original solution CDR 220.
