Do you have DVD Navigation? The drive for that system goes there and that is likely the plugs for that system.

If the drive is there and working then I really don't know what else those connectors could be for, hopefully someone else can help.

I think you found the connections for a mobile telephone to make it work through your PCM. You can also hook up a bluetooth kit there, or so I've heard.

Thanks to this thread you have helped resolve a 5 year mystery for me.

In '05 I customed ordered a Cayenne with telephone prep, $250. When the car came all I got was a black adapter bolted to passenger hand hold at center console. Dealer said "Porsche has run into problems with FCC regarding telephone sales and has suspended all phone prep."

<Insert your own experlative here>

I was told I would be contacted when the FCC issue was resolved.

After years of inquiry I was told by service rep only way to get phone capability was change out PCM head unit to one with sim drawer, $5000

<insert more colorful experlative here>

In '05 when I first got FCC excuse from dealer I bought ( on Ebay) for $50 the entire hardware to equip an '04 Cayenne with mobile phone prep, but let it sit waiting for dealer to advise. I thought I could save some money on hardware using this used stuff. (Part numbers available if anyone wants to know)

When I saw this post I dug up my old Ebay hardware plugged it in to wiring harness, dug out my old cellphone from '05 AND THE SYSTEM WORKED!!!!!

The radio mutes, PCM announces (visually) incoming call, and calls routed through car speakers. The microphone is even installed.

Two problems however;

I cannot find the antenna coax cable under passenger seat.

Who wants a hard wired cell phone to car (I would like to convert to bluetooth)

Anyone hook up a bluetooth using this pigtail under the passenger seat?

I believe I have read some posts about people hooking up a Parrot bluetooth kit under the seat.

That is good to know because I just bought a Parrot LS 3200 Color bluetooth,

I'm hoping that I can either use this unit or the Parrot CK 3100 (currently in my Boxster) to finish this project.

I'll keep the group updated on my progress. . .
