The head unit* I bought: Color: 7862 256G 360 CAM

*I am however not completely satisfied with this seller as he provided no instruction, not all wires are labeled and even though I ordered the 360° camera they didn't provide the calibration cloths needed to align the 360° cameras after install.

In this video I remove the only expensive option from my 2008 Porsche Cayman S, the PCM 2.1 navigation head unit to replace it with a relatively cheap Chinese aftermarket Android head unit. This may seem counter intuitive but the PCM system was not great in 2008 and it's not gotten better over 15 years. So, a new Android head unit is a major improvement to the car. Also, this Head Unit comes with a bezel that integrates nicely into the car's interior and it features knobs for volume and track selections.
In this video you can follow along on my troubles getting the unit installed. The installation should be the same for 987 generation Porsche Boxsters as well as 997 generation Porsche 911. My 987.1 Cayman has Sound Package Plus with the ASK Amp in the frunk. If your car has Bose an additional fiber optic box is required as on those cars the Bose amplifier is connected through MOST.
A head unit like this runs Android. Therefore apps such as Google Maps, KZitem, Waze or Spotify can be installed and used directly on the device. It is also possible to connect a Smartphone for using Apple Car Play or Android Auto.
