As I recall, I initially put the Tranzit BLU directly behind the CDR24, but was having to force things a bit to get the radio back in. I think I then dropped the Trannzt BLU down into the area behind the heater/AC controls. Maybe that area is less shielded? My install was in a 2007 Cayman with the base (not Bose!) audio system.

Just wondering where you can get this installed in Boston? Any reputable car audio guys that a reenlisted can recommend to get the Tranzit BLU installed?

Thanks!

thanks for the info guys. I finally go around to installing mine last night. easy setup. I was able to install the mic in the factory spot and it works great. two torx screws underneath the steering column opens it up easily.

I thought I read that someone wrote the sound pickup in the standard location wasn't so hot so I didn't even try that.

I made a few test calls before putting it back together and they could here me loud and clear. I used a bent hanger to fish it through. pics below.

I'd like to know this answer before I begin.
Also, will I need a code to unlock the radio after disconnecting the battery for this?

The PCM radio is not like the old CDR series that locked when disconnected from power....so no code is needed.

I have enjoyed mine... 2 flaws already pointed out are the background noise (don't care much in a convertible) and the quiet volume. I am on android operating system so my best workaround was to use poweramp (though I'm playing my own mp3s off my phone) and turn up the gain on this player. It has a "preamp" feature but I maxed out the replay gain in the volume leveling and found this more convenient. I also set it to just start playing with a bluetooth connect on poweramp, which works for me but not everybody's application.

I couldn't find a universal gain for the entire phone's bluetooth volume, but if anybody has found such a thing let me know.

I don't get it. WHY would ANYONE do this, vs. Dension or Mobridge which totally ties into the OEM Phone function?

Cost, and the fact that the Dension and Mobridge do encounter the odd issue every now and then.

That said, the Dension I installed in my car has been working perfectly for ages now.

I installed mine this morning. Only used it for 2 short drives, but it works great. This is a perfect solution in my opinion for bluetooth streaming audio and adding phone functionality.

What I don't like about the Tranzit is that you have to be in its bluetooth mode ie On radio Station and on for it to pick up Phone calls.

anybody else have issues after their iphone software updated?

I haven't. Currently running OS 9.1. Run this setup on my 997 and Cayenne.

What issues are you encountering?
