The mic isn't good. The mic I had in my Motorola hands-free kit before I upgraded the stereo wasn't good either.

Great install! I live in the Denver area and I'm looking to do something similar with my 996. Which installer did you go to?

Thanks

The installer that I used for that installation is no longer in business, unfortunately.

My recommendation is to use the following installer:

Marshall "Moe" Meinen
Colorado Car Audio
15985 S Golden Rd, Suite E
Golden, CO 80401
(303) 475-2664 mobile
(720) 638-0681
www.colorado-caraudio.com

They do great work also and pay great attention to detail. They installed the Mobridge M2 Pro in my 997 TT.

Do you by chance have the PN on the pocket above the Ac controls? thanks.

Does the radio still operate like the factory whereas when you turn the key off it keeps playing and when you remove the key it plays until you open the door?

Excellent job Dennis. Did the same thing this week. Installed the 7 inch Pioneer AVH-

4100NeX with Apple Play, an amp, XM, and related cables and mod kit to relocate the Ac controls. Has a touch screen and has awesome graphics. Parts came to 1150.00, 280.00 for install here in Marietta at Sound Sensations. Still have to replace all speakers and am doing comparisons for now. In the meantime, I can enjoy the sound and features.
