So it says they make a double din unit and there is an aftermarket double din bracket for our vehicles, but I’m wondering if this will be a plug and play solution. This radio would need to have plug adapters for the 48 pin plug and at least the 5 other potential plugs our current PCM’s use in order to keep all of the original functions like XM, USB, cameras etc.
plus if this is a P car part, you can bet it will be big $$$$.

OK, you guys are talking me into buying one of these systems. So I don't have to read through this 437 post thread... can someone tell me, is the Joyeauto system the consensus best? Is the best price directly through Joyeauto.com? I know everybody is saying installation is a breeze, but it looks like I could have it installed at Best Buy for $99, so I'm leaning that way.

I have the Joyeauto and I think that any of the Chinese sellers are identical with just different names on them. If I were to do it over again, I would get the more expensive but functionally identical (I believe) system from NM automotive in Great Britain. You will be dealing with a superior service seller who seems to be much easier to deal with. I had a defective cable with my Joyeauto unit and it took 2 months and countless emails and just the language barrier and trying to clarify and constantly repeat what my problem was and how to resolve drove me nuts. Plus right now I’m not in the mood to in any way support a Chinese company, but that’s just me.

I 100% agree that the guys at NM AUTO OR if you’re in the USA call Perzan auto radio in Philadelphia, because they sell them in the USA and globally.

Where did you get the update and are the instructions straight forward? Just insert usb with file, tell it where the file is located, then it goes?

I'm finally going to install the update today. Hopefully it corrects some of the issues I'm having. If it doesn't I'm not sure how much I can really recommend this thing. Which sucks because initially it was functioning great other than occasionally unintentionally calling someone or zooming the map out to Hubble scale because the PCM doesn't realize the inputs are for Carplay not it due to the screen hijack.
Lately the phone and carplay have frequently been struggling to connect, sometimes it finally figures it out after going into the menu and forcing it to try and connect, other times it absolutely will not connect until the carplay is power cycled, it's locked up a few times, the screen has gone black a couple of times, yesterday after streaming music perfectly fine for about an hour I fired up Waze and the audio popped pretty loudly, increased in volume by maybe 25% and sounded like absolute garbage, switched to FM radio and sounds fine, back to carplay and tinny garbage. Then it was fine on the return trip.
At this point if Porsche came out with an updated PCM like they have for the older models I'd pull the trigger on it (provided it wasn't just this thing with a 1000% Porsche markup)
