I just bought a used PCM 2.1 and Navigation for my car. The PCM install within 5 mins and everything is working correctly. However, I'm having trouble with the navigation unit. I believe the 997 S and GT3 (mine) uses the vertical mount navigation and my part numbers below should be for this. I cannot find a space to fit the unit! Am I suppose to remove the plastic cover in the center of the trunk to place the DVD drive?
Navigation drive 997.642.159.01
Bracket 997.642.231.00




I think i'm missing some hardware and maybe a longer MOST cable to get to the below. Anyone know the part numbers i need?




Some help would be great! Thanks!

 

Those are some good questions. I dont know of anyone doing a retrofit, much less a retrofit by themselves.
Good Luck

 

i've done it you'll need a new bracket and housing cover like this. i have more pictures and part #'s at home. btw, do you have Bose or None Bose PCM?

 

non bose pcm... the pcm works flawlessly, except for the link with chrono

can you post the part numbers when you're home? also, do i need another, longer MOST cable? i believe i have 997.622.707.00

 

okay so if you only have the navigation module (dvd player), then all you need is just one MOST end. do you have one already?

 

i have the PCM 2.1 installed already and i have the below parts left to install

Navigation drive 997.642.159.01
Bracket 997.642.231.00
MOST cable 997.622.707.00
DVD power cable (don't remember part number)
GPS antenna and cable (don't remember part number)

 

Which model GT3 do you have?

 

looks like a 7gt3

 

yep, 997 gt3

 

Don't forget to let us know how everything works out. I am thinking of doing the same thing myself.

 

sean, do you have bose pcm? if not, do you have any idea how to install mobridge like products?

 

once finished i'll update everyone! just need a few extra part numbers to finish up!

 

nope, no bose pcm, no cd changer. as for mobridge, don't have the slightest clue yet. but i think it should be farily easy shouldn't it?

btw fern, you get a chance to look up the part numbers for me? thanks!

 

sorry i dont have the part numbers. i just went to dealer and asked for the plastic bracket, housing and new carpet for a 4S with no bose. they should have it in there pet.

 

got it... btw, do you have the part number for the MOST cable? i don't think mine is correct (997.622.707.00 for non-bose, no CD) as it looks to short to reach down there.

any chance you have pics of your DIY for the navi unit install?
