Can I modernize my 1983 Porsche 944?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I attempt to install a Banvie Passive Keyless Entry system, Apple CarPlay (& Android Auto) stereo, and backup camera. I also refresh the interior with fiberglass dash repairs, Sparco seats, new floor mats, and several other small touches.

    Search "single din carplay" on Amazon and you'll find a few different brands/models. The one I bought is sold under several unrecognizable brands and I can't truly recommend it because it was a pain to setup, the user interface isn't great, and it's pretty laggy, but on the plus side, once it was setup, it worked every time and it connected wirelessly.

    I’m a happy owner of a 1990 S2Cabriolet…I “gifted it” to myself the year that I both turned 50 AND promoted to Navy O6. That was almost 20 years ago now….my S2 still has less than 70k on the clock…she is stored 6-7 months a year (I live in New England)….and recently, I’ve debated either modernizing the car, or buying a used 911 997. Whatever I end up doing, I admire the hell out of your effort. I’m long past the patience and tools to tackle an effort of this magnitude….which all the more makes me admire your! Bravo-Zulu, we’ll done brother, very well done!!!

    That rear quarter is going to be fun...NOT! Get a Dashmat...problem solved. Always loved the 944...had a girlfriend who had one and let me borrow it regularly. Fun drives up PCH from Ventura to Santa Barbara to go see shows at The Arlington or The Bowl...lots of great memories. YES...Toad The Wet Sprocket...Sting...Oingo Boingo...75 to 85 was such a great time in music. Good luck with your restomod.

    For the interior- working on a car using Corbeau seats. I bought extra seat material so I can upholster the back seat to match the front buckets, custom headliner, wrap the package tray & dash pad, and part of the door panels. It's a '70's American "Budget" sedan that sports brakes, suspension, engine & a manual gearbox that most people snicker about. It's fun
