Everything is a bit slow to react in the West Midlands.
Those speaker panels look great.Bootsy wrote:Still no air cooled action but will remedy that
Thought this may be of interest to other early Boxster or 996 owners
Mentioned the other day the 986 Stereo seemed to have blown
Actually it was a speaker that had blown but decided to upgrade it all a little but keeping the factory look
So first a new Bluetooth and Tuner from Blaupunkt. The Madrid 200BT
Nicely featured with a decent output and blends well with the dash - usb port can be used to pop media into it or as in my case a simple power output for phone charging
Will delete the CD holder underneath as no need for that anymore!
Then to the speakers - if your 986 didn’t come with the upgraded Bose system the speakers are crap
So purchased this kit which includes Alpine 2 way speakers and some adapter plates, wiring adapters etc so you can use the factory grilles and wiring
Instructions are clear and it’s a quick job to get the new speakers mounted onto the old grilles
All installed and sounding much better than before
Got the speaker kit from these guys - very quick service

Should get a chance to go out this evening so will update. Also 987.2 so didn't want the faff of returns if it threw errors.hot66 wrote:Let me know how you it is once you’ve done both beams. Have you driven at night yet ? This something I’m contemplating doing to my spyder (987.2)
