Default My Tesla Style Screen on my Cayenne


This video was made a couple weeks ago and I never could get it to upload on YouTube and 4K but this is the best I can do

very easy install purchased from China almost a year owned works great.

Rear camera works no different then OEM, Apple car play also works phone calls the same.
you will lose the small navigation screen on the Speedo which but small trade off all oem connections.



also found a video of my exhaust

Nice vids. Exhaust sounds great! Screen is huge (which is great!). Are car controls and radio controls (FM, satellite radio, etc) still functional?

Wow awesome! Did you replaced the whole PCM or just the screen? How much this retrofit cost?

Great, so you can watch YouTube videos while you're driving? Or Netflix or whatever?

Need more details! Does this unit include the Carplay or do you need to buy the Carplay module and the screen upgrade separately? Looks good, and honestly better integrated than a lot of the factory "pop-up" screens. How does the screen quality compare to stock for glare, resolution and brightness?

I always worry about Android tablets getting sluggish over time, but that could very well be from the OS updates taxing the hardware with features it wasn't meant to support, whereas this could be kept at a certain version and hopefully not plagued with the same problems?

While it definitely doesn't look as integrated as the OEM display, other OEM's have gone with similarly 'tacked on' displays that don't look as good as this one.. (Yes, you, M-B!)

I replaced the whole PCM it comes as one piece same oem connectors same screws as the OEM system to lock in.

apple car play was separate it was $50 bucks I think I never use it. Screen plays Netflix, prime video for XM radio either download the app and log in or just stream it Bluetooth like I do. I was I believe the first person to integrate this system I paid with Apple car play $1100 USD using PayPal.

For steering wheel controls volume still works but you can’t change songs with the steering wheel and you lose the little navigation screen on the speedometer but all functions still operate.
the cayenne settings are integrated in the Tesla Style Screen for example locking door timer, unlock driver only or passenger etc I forget all of them I tried showcasing it in the end of the video but I can’t get the HD

imstall I did my self just pop out the old screen and click in the Porsche OEM connectors onto the new.

rear camera works the same quality looks better since this screen is 720 or 900 I forget

Really like this. Always thought the screen in our Cayenne is embarrassingly small. Drove by a newer model Mazda 3 the other day and that even has a bigger screen than our $80k+ vehicle. I would definitely look into buying something like this after my warranty expires. Don't want to jeopardize it and have the dealer use this as an excuse for not fixing a problem. If you can put together a DIY instructions on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

This looks to be the perfect solution when the $4k+ PCM dies.

Exactly! , if something goes wrong with my Chinese CarPlay retrofit and my PCM explodes, I can get one of those for cheap.
peace of mind.....

What is the device up near the windshield? Is that a screen, or a phone mount? Very nice setup. I saw someone else sharing this or supporting this from Canada. How did you get the radar mounted to the mirror? Or is that just from that angle?

That device in the windshield is the Owl Camera, - Its great Its a LTE dashcam thats connected into the OBD that I can go on my phone and look inside/outside my truck at any time. If it ever got stolen it has a microphone built into it so I can yell at the person and with its LTE service i can track its location anywhere in the country while sitting home. Also great for when you're driving and something interesting happens you can go back and save an HD clip.. created by ex google employees who ventured into new business.



Radar detector is the Escort 360 wired into the driver side fuse box.. super easy job I got the mount on amazon but its ridiculous how much they charge for such a simple piece.

I have videos of it thru email with the company.. When I was setting it up I had an issue with a plug I did something backwards I can look.
