Noooooo. Whomever installed the Pioneeer car-play stereo in my Cayenne did a whorable job. Thought it was going to be cool having carplay.
They put way too much sub woofer and disconnected half the speakers including the sub woofer, added cheap speakers, and the 8 inch mid-bass speakers were blown. They tossed the bose amp that did the speaker tuning/surround sound, and didn't connect any of the most data bus stuff including the steering wheel buttons. They also added their own antenna and gps antenna. It would have been a LOT cheaper and sound much better to just get a most data bus adapter for the pioneer head unit.
I want the sub box and amps they added removed from the rear floor so I might actually be able to carry something in the back.
Got a complete set of the 12 speakers off ebay for $100, including replacements for the 8 inch woofers. Taking to the dealership tomorrow for them to see how much of the factory system has been removed.
Hopefully I will be able to get an amp for $250 and a most data bus interface for the pioneer for another $200. And it will be the best of both.
Oh and there will have to be some programming done at the dealership for the stereo to work with the steeringwheel and know when reverse is engaged to use the backup camera, etc.
