If you do a Google Search for PCM3.1 CarPlay, companies such as Joyeauto and Unichip show up. These companies have install videos on YouTube too. I believe, but not 100% sure, that you put the radio in Satellite radio mode and you enter the CarPlay mode (so all other original functions should still be available). I have seen at least one review that suggests these "retrofits" can't access the Porsche mic and so you need to add a secondary mic for at least communicating with Siri (and perhaps CarPlay initiated calls?). There doesn't seem to be a lot of people on this forum but I believe the PCM3.1 head unit was used across a lot of Porsches, so I might do a broader search across this forum. If I find any relevant threads, I'll add them here...
