The only reason I didn't go with a doulbe din is the next major mod for the car. I'm still go back and forward on giving the car a widebody. I know for sure that I will add twin turbos to the car. That last din will house my gauges for this.
Thanks for the input. I finally got the touch to work on the screen. I will update pics soon.
They’re all momentarily switches. In other words they don’t work with the current model that I’m shooting for. For anyone out there, does Porsche/ VW make a true rocker switch that will fit in the OEM slot? I can’t find anything.

I wanted to place a mic outside for when I do my runs. The only problem I was facing was wind nosie. I found a place, its located next to the hood latch. I found a rubber plug next to the center radiator (yes I meant “Center,” the Boxster s have 3 radiators) that I ran the wire through.
I installed the docking station. I had a problem with the touchscreen and the docking station. But after a while, I finally got it to work with a little help from Pancit175.
I also installed a Ground loop isolator to get rid of the noise.
I used a Sony Mic
