Porsche Cayenne Android head units (955, 957)
Android head unit and reversing camera for the first generation Porsche Cayenne (955 and 957), for model years 2002 to 2010. The centre console was reworked in the 2007 facelift, so before ordering it is worth sending a photo of the centre of the dashboard. Important: although the Cayenne was developed jointly with the VW Touareg, the Touareg frame does not fit the Porsche. With the factory Bose system the car has a separate amplifier – let us know in advance. CarPlay and Android Auto, multi-language menu, 2-year warranty. Back to all Porsche head units.
Porsche Cayenne Android head units (955, 957) – what you need to know
The first generation Porsche Cayenne (955, and after the 2007 facelift 957) was built between 2002 and 2010, and it is still one of the most popular used premium SUVs in Hungary. The factory head unit has become limited by now, though: there is no smartphone mirroring, the navigation map has not been updated for years, and the CD-based system is slow. The Android head unit offered here fits into the Cayenne's centre console, with a wiring loom made for the factory connectors – nothing has to be cut or drilled, and the installation is reversible.
There are two things to watch. One is the facelift: the centre console of the pre-2007 (955) and post-2007 (957) cars is laid out differently, so before ordering please send us a photograph of the area around your current radio – that makes it clear which frame is needed. The other is the Bose sound system: if the car has factory Bose, it works with a separate amplifier, which we keep after the head unit is replaced; it simply needs the right adapter.
A common misconception: the Cayenne 955/957 was developed jointly with the first generation Volkswagen Touareg, and the floorpan and many technical elements really are the same – but the dashboard and the radio frame are NOT. A head unit made for the Touareg does not fit the Cayenne. A shared platform does not mean a shared dashboard.
On this page you will also find the reversing cameras for the Cayenne. Because of the Cayenne's tall, wide body the rear blind spot is substantial, so a camera is not a luxury but a genuine safety accessory. We currently have no head unit for the post-2010 958 Cayenne, but a reversing camera can be ordered for that too.
