Help with mods - im looking for.....

Ok guys, i have a short list (ok, not THAT short) of things im looking for and id like some imput from you all on where to go, what brands, etc etc etc.

Xenon bulbs(low beams)...perhaps 6500k? Anyone done this on their CS?

Fog Light Bulbs...id like to match em up with the low beams (PIAA?)

Exhaust tips...id like a "quad-tip" look...should i go oem (Turbo, or Titanium ed tips) or aftermarket? (FYI: i dont like the Fabspeed tips all that much)

Double Din Kit: I am about to have my Pioneer Z1 unit installed and am wondering if there are kits that are required to make this work? Anyone have any info on this or shoudl i just let the shop do something custom?

Thanks in advance guys!

Interms of exhaust tips stick with the Tequipment aka Titanium edition tip's, my cayenne came that way from the factory and not regretting ticking that option.

SoCal955 is infamous around these parts
I would go with the factory turbo tips.....the TechArt tips are really nice too, but a whole lot more $$$.

Sorry not experienced in that field, kept them OEM so whenever they burn out a quick 5 minute commute to the dealer to get them replaced in comparison from ordering them online and waiting a week and thats in my case since I live in Kuwait.

What shop are you using??


I would highly recommend using a shop that has installed over 20 head units in Cayenne's......Im not sure how my shop does it but I know they have installed over 50 and they arent using any sort of premade fitting kit.

If your interested....You should call my installer, He is by far the BEST in the Philly area( and probably further) especially when it comes to Cayenne's.....to date I still havent seen anyone with my setup utilizing the instrument cluster screens for DVD/IPOD/XM......

PM me if your interested....I will be glad to put you two in touch

I was planning on using Goodman Radio in Bryn Mawr. They do lots of high end cars including most stereo jobs for Brandywine Porsche. I have had GREAT experiences there before on past cars/system installs.

PM me your info though - im interested in hearing more
