Becker Grand Prix Microphone connection missing

[986volante]

Hi Newbie here,

Just bought a '96 Boxster and delighted with the car in every way.

I just have one slightly frustrating issue that I'd really like to resolve if at all possible.

I paired my iPhone with the above unit, no problem, and heard who I was calling but couldn't speak to them. I subsequently found out that the microphone was originally a standard fitment with the radio unit so I checked behind the cover on the dash where the microphone should be, but it wasn't there.

I then slid out the radio but there was no microphone wire/ connection plugged into the radio or anywhere to be seen. I do remember being told when I bought the car that the radio had been removed at some stage by a previous owner, and then later put back - but clearly the microphone wasn't refitted.

So now I obviously need to buy and fit a replacement.

I've tried a couple of car radio shops but have been told that there is no support for Becker units now in the UK for some unknown reason (guess they may also just want to try and sell me something new off their shelves I suppose!).

Also looked on eBay and searched the net to no avail.

Anybody know of a supplier for this or can help in any way please?

Cheers,

Tony

P.S. hope this is the right section for this.........
