Congrats and post done right.....with awesome pics!

You don't want the factory unit anyhow. Technology goes on even though the car is classic.

Good riddance! The 997.1 factory unit is more or less useless. If it was professionally installed, consider it a positive.

I don't use navigation in my Pioneer, but bluetooth phone and music streaming are essential today. It's crazy to think that the 997 was largely developed before the smart phone era.

Looks great, I also Like the roof mounted mortar, that will work great in keeping traffic out of your way

It adds quite a bit of weight, but I feel it's worth the trade-off

I love Midnight Blue, I've always wanted a p-car with it since I saw one of our customers 993 painted that color!

Nice, looks very very clean for a 05, especially the interior!
