Monster can you help me with this andyholmes2005@yahoo.co.uk
Ha, Ive just been prodded by Michael!
Yes it can be done, I have a 2005 car and have installed it in mine and a few other peoples in the UK now. Everything works including the AC. Its a fiddly project but if your practical it can be done. Activation codes are needed to get certain PCM functions working, but there are ways of reliably obtaining these.
Michael has listed the main items needed, there are other smaller things needed in addition such as the later 997.2 PASM button unit, an interface loom to connect the PCM 3 up to the original wiring loom in car, 997.2 GPS antenna cable and then wiring for the iPod function in the arm rest and the bluetooth handsfree kit.
If anyone wants to give it a go I can talk them through it, or fire away and ask question and I''ll answer them on here.
Here is a pic of mine all installed and working.

Reviving an old thread here, I’m REALLY wanting to get to the bottom of this. Is it really that difficult to do? Is it really that rare to get this done? I remember seeing Tim’s car on a thread a LONG time ago. Pretty sure he had a 991 steering wheel on it as well. Has anyone heard from him regarding this? I. Surprised he didn’t end up chiming in on this thread myself actually
