I just bought a 996 Carrera (2002) and am trying to get a direct connection for my Ipod (not interested in the FM modulator connection). Is this possible with and without a NAV system?

The Dension direct connect looks like it works for 2003 and newer units, so I am a year off.

Thanks!

Becker offers an adaptor that uses the aux inputs on the back of the radio. However this eliminates the CD changer that uses these inputs so it is one or the other.

I just ran a $5 cable (headphone 3.5mm to RCA) from my iphone to the RCA cable at the cd changer. In other words, unplug the CD changer and plug the headphone to RCA cable in there. You have to keep one cd in the changer for it to think there is a cd there but it works fantastic. If you want to get fancy you can then add any dock that has an audio out.

Thanks. Where can I buy this Becker wire? This is a direct connect wire, correct?

Please read Orient Express's DIY (in the link he gave you above).

It has the company and phone number near the top of the DIY.
