997 Retrofit PCM Telephone Module

[martinkeyworth]

I want to find someone near to me (Sheffield) who could retrofit a PCM telephone module on my 997 S. Not willing to pay silly dealership money so any advice welcome.

Dont bother - its crap.

Just use a mobile with bluetooth.

its crap that bluetooth is not even an option... or so I think

Tell me about it. Porsche are about 5yrs behind everyone. Who the hell nowadays has a separate car phone number and there's no way I'm going to mess about switching SIM cards between mobile and car everytime I get in.

You get bluetooth in a £10k Fiesta nowadays...

Honestly its a waste of time trying to retrofit the unit.

i've got a bluetooth and its an excellent piece of kit and very subtle/small

I've got the PCM navigation and phone modules on a Boxster and GT3 and they work just fine - pleased I spec'd them.

However, it probably wouldn't be cost effective to retro-fit. An aftermarket blue tooth is much better value.

I've got the telephone module in my 997. It's fine unless you want to talk to someone whilst driving, when they can't hear you, or when you want to get someone's phone number from your phone book and notice your phone has it's back off as you've dismantled it to get the SIM card out.

Save your money, buy a parot!
