Is this the fibre optic connection for the PCM2.1?

Hi. I have never used a forum before, although have followed them. I'm hoping that somebody will be able to help. I have had a 2005 Cayenne S for nearly a year now and apart from having to have the coolant pipe upgrade done (£1008), I have been very pleased. I did originally look at having an ipod/iphone kit installed, but was pretty shocked at the quotes I was given, so decided against. However, I've just noticed some wiring next to the CD multi changer in the right hand rear cubby hole (boot/trunk). Does anyone know what they are? As you can see, I have a female plug, with a smaller plug running off it and what I think 'might' be a fibre optic?post-85248-0-06873400-1373631747_thumb.j I am hoping that I might have 'some' of the kit already installed. Any advice would be much appreciated. I have a PCM 2.1 fitted, along with a multi changer and all works fine. Many thanks. Stu

Does not appear to be. The MOST system with Fiber optics will be two (usually orange) plastic looking tubes into a black fitting...One send light signal out and the other has light coming in...Not sure what you are holding?

Hope that helps?

Thanks for that. I must admit that I was getting all excited hoping that it would be. At least that's sorted. Would like to find out what they are though, if anyone's got any ideas. Thanks again.

This is just an idea, but one looks like an antenna connection and the other power plus ??? could be nav or 'phone if you don't already have them? Just a thought?

It's not NAV - since nav has nothing in that area, could be phone though..

That sounds along the right lines. Thing is, we've a built in phone (the dash has a slot for a SIM card), so not sure why you'd have the extra one wired in. I must say though, I've got to agree that it does look like a phone antenna connection. Thanks to all comments so far. Stu
