Careless installation and operation can result in equipment damage
Introduction:
For those adamant about keeping their vehicle’s stock radio, we offer a simple
upgrade that allows the factory radio to support new technology. The IL-CR12
allows Porsche CR-1 & CR-2 cassette radios in the 911, 944, 964, 968, 993 to
charge and play music files from Apple’s latest iPods, iPhones and Tablets
including iPhone 6s, 6+, 7, 12+etc. Because this adapter connects directly to the
radio “CD”por, the factory CD changer (if present), must be disconnected.
Installation:
Although not critical, we recommend disconnecting the car
battery. Keep in mind all CR-1/2 radios are coded and will
not operate without the code. Radio code must be available
for radio to operate upon reconnection.
Radio removal required to gain access to connectors.
1. Remove trim ring and ensure both tabs are centered at which point
radio is pulled from dash (grasping the cassette opening provides
some leverage) or push from rear.
2. With radio removed, disconnect CD changer (if present) 13-pin plug
(See. Fig. 1) from radio.
3. Connect adapter 13-pin plug to “CD”connector on radio (See Fig. 2)

to not cut, pinch or crimp the cable during this step.
