Add wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to your Porsche 911 while keeping everything that makes it feel like a 911: the factory PCM screen, the rotary and touch controls, steering wheel buttons and Porsche's own sound quality. CarPlay Direct is the official UK authorised Mr12Volt stockist, so whether your 911 runs PCM 2.0/2.1, PCM 3.0 or PCM 3.1, there's a genuine kit built for your car's exact system.
Porsche 911 Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
Find Your Kit
Apple Carplay & Android Auto Upgrades
Your 911 runs one of three different PCM generations depending on when it was built. Use the table below to find yours by year, then check it against the identification notes underneath, PCM 3.0 and 3.1 look identical on the dashboard so the year is a starting point, not proof.
| Your 911 | Years | System | Kit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 997.1 | 2004 to 2008 | PCM 2.0 / 2.1 | P800 Bluetooth kit, £159.99* |
| 997.2 | 2009 to 2011 | PCM 3.0 | PCM 3.0 kit, £399.99 |
| 991.1 | 2012 to 2016 | PCM 3.1 | PCM 3.1 kit, £399.99 |
*The P800 is a Bluetooth audio streaming and handsfree upgrade, not full Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Not Sure? Check your dashboard
Screen shape (tells you 2.0/2.1 apart from everything newer): PCM 2.0/2.1 (997.1, 2004-2008) has a smaller, roughly square screen with no touch function, everything is controlled by the rotary dial and buttons around it. PCM 3.0, 3.1, 4.0 and 6.0 all use a wider, letterbox-shaped screen spanning most of the console width. If yours is the small square screen, you're on PCM 2.0/2.1, you want the P800 kit below, no further checking needed.
Software version check (the only reliable way to tell 3.0 from 3.1): PCM 3.0 and PCM 3.1 use the exact same screen and button layout, so looking at the dashboard, or comparing it to a photo, won't tell them apart. With the ignition on, press SOURCE (bottom left of the screen) and INFO (to the right of the main control dial) at the same time, and the screen will display the software version, for example 3.0 or 3.1. This works even if your car already has an aftermarket CarPlay unit fitted, since it reads the underlying Porsche software rather than whatever's showing on screen.

P800 Bluetooth kit, for 911 997.1 (2004-2008)
Earlier 997.1 911s run PCM 2.0/2.1, which predates full CarPlay/Android Auto integration. The P800 is a different kind of upgrade: genuine Bluetooth music streaming and handsfree calling through your factory MOST network, with SBC, AAC, aptX and aptX HD codec support for noticeably better audio quality than a standard Bluetooth adapter.

Why choose Mr12Volt
Cheaper Porsche CarPlay boxes typically connect through the AUX input, which compromises sound quality and drops functionality your factory system already has. Every genuine Mr12Volt interface integrates directly with your 911's fibre-optic MOST network, preserving audio quality, steering wheel controls and PCM operation exactly as Porsche intended, at a lower price than the closest UK competitor offering anything close to genuine bus integration.
