Porsche Classic Radio (996/986) SKU: SKUPCCMPLUS

The PCCM Plus combines the analog past with the digital future – and therefore timeless driving pleasure with state-of-the-art technology. Even though you like to travel in classic style, sometimes blissfully unaware of the time, it goes without saying that you want an easy and comfortable journey that avoids any traffic jams. The new Porsche Classic Communication Management will help you achieve this.  With its unique, original Porsche look complete with Porsche lettering, the PCCM blends seamlessly into the vehicle interior. In addition to touchscreen operation via a 7-inch display, modern functions such as Apple CarPlay have now become part of the PCCM. Like its predecessor, the PCCM also features additional on-board navigation. Route guidance is available in 2D, 3D and as a basic arrow view. The associated map material (external SD card) can be ordered separatly at an additional cost.  You can still use Apple CarPlay for navigation, but purchase the additional maps if you want stored maps inside the radio.  User friendly with intuitive operation, control the device via the 7 inch touch-screen high resolution display, as well as via push button and dial controls.  

Well connected & entertained.

Suncoast Notes:

• Having Installation Issues?  DO NOT CALL US!  Contact your local Porsche dealer to have this radio installed properly.  There are many facets to this installation.  If there are ANY hurdles, your Porsche dealer MUST contact Porsche's technical support line to solve any glitches, make modifications, or update software/firmware.  We can NOT assist you with this remotely, and we can assure you that the radio is not defective.  Porsche's technical support line is experienced with all of the common pitfalls and tricks of this installation.  There are about ten variants of this installation for this generation, even highly experienced installers could have problems. 
• Modifications Necessary - If you have the single DIN radio, dash modifications are required to fit this radio.  The radio support bracket must trimmed to allow for the larger radio.  Porsche recommends replacing the entire center console, but we assume most would rather save the money and mofify what's in the car.  For later cars (2002-05), an inner bracket also must be modified to make way for the larger radio.  Any modifications are done at your own risk.
• AC Relocation - If your AC unit is above the radio, it must be relocated to the lower center console.  This is very simple, you can easily reroute the wiring to the lower console.  The Suncoast kit comes with the necessary trim frame to install the AC unit to the lower console area.  See the main photo for reference.
• PCM 1.0 Note - For first generation vehicles with PCM 1.0 (Double-DIN Navigation radio with cassette player), additional parts are required for installation.  If your Porsche has PCM 1.0, select the correct option during checkout.  Not sure?  Contact us with your VIN, and have photos of your radio.
• Pre-Existing Conditions -  If you currently have issues with your factory audio system, get them resolved before you add this radio.  If there is an aftermarket radio in your car, we recommend converting back to your stock radio first to ensure that the factory audio system is fully functional, and make sure your vehicles wiring harness has not been cut or modified.  Any unresolved issues or modifications to the wiring harness could make it difficult, costly, or impossible to install this radio.
  
• Maps - Navigation maps are not included, but can be added for an additional cost.  If you plug in your phone to use Apple CarPlay, you can use maps via your phone instead.
• Installation Notes:
  
• Dealer Installation - Dealer installation is highly recommended.  But be aware that most dealers won't want to modify your dash trim to fit the larger radio, they will want to sell you a complete new center console trim as per Porsche's recommendations.  
• Self Installation - Do so at your own risk.  This is a technical installation, not for the average radio installer.  If you have any issues during the installation, Suncoast will not provide technical support.  You will have to contact your local Porsche dealership for any technical support at an additional cost.  Based on our experience these radios don't fail, but missing a step during the installation process can cause loss of sound, reception issues, and other glitches.  We can provide an official installation guide upon request, but you will have to work with a technician or check web forums to diagnose common installation errors.    
• Vehicle Options - No two installations will be the same.  The year of the car, sound system, and original head unit will effect the installation.  Some cars will be a plug-and-play, some require an additional ground wire in the front trunk, some connect to a fiber optic network.  Be prepared for this, make sure your installer is experienced and able/willing to solve any installation obstacles.
