Im planning on doing a double din install on my '00 Boxster, it currently has the single din set up with the ac/heat controls up top.

From reading the forums it seems that moving those controls down isnt too hard. What Im worried about is the mounting bracket for the double din radio up top.

Do most double din radios come with this bracket?

I was looking at a poineer deck and i didnt come with this bracket? Does anyone know where I can purchase this bracket from?

Hi Ben- I have a new double din Pioneer mounting bracket that I did not use as well as some other pieces like a wiring plug for a double din install. I need to check to see all that I have but it will be much less than purchasing a new install kit even if you need some other pieces which are readily available. If you are interested send me a PM cmg

When you move your AC. Sunset has the trim piece:

The part number for the trim piece for the lowest DIN is:

996-552-339-00-01C

Item: A\C Panel

Price was $5.23 to Washington State plus shipping. Outside Oregon and Washington there is a %15 mark up from Sunset Porsche in Oregon.
