I am on the cusp of buying a 997.2 (either 2010, 11, or 12). Looks like the Universal Audio Interface did not come standard, and only about half of my current finalists have it. Is it terribly difficult/expensive to add in an auxiliary input on a 997.2? I care less about iPod integration with the touch screen than I do about just being able to listen to either my iPod or my phone (Spotify, Pandora, etc.).

It's straight forward to add the universal audio interface after the fact. I certainly would not let that sway you on a car. The OEM kit sells for around $400 at Suncoast and your dealer will charge you about $300 labor to put it in, or if you are handy you can install and then take to the dealer to have them code it.

I had it installed on my 997.1 C2S last month, and it works great with either iPod or iPhone. I have Pandora radio on the iPhone to add even more music than what is in my iTunes library.
Annapolis P dealer ordered kit and installed for $750 total, but given the alternatives, I am happy with it.

If you're going to spend that much for a line in unit it might be worth considering the phone/Bluetooth integration options from Dension or Viseeo?

I agree with nzskater, as it is an overly expensive way to just get a plug in option for an iPhone.

But the quote for a full-blown system conversion to a Kenwood unit with all the integration and bells & whistles was about $3,500...and that audio company, even as highly recommended as it was, still could not guarantee it would not mess with the other car systems. I am reluctant to act when someone says "It should work just fine." In my experience, it hardly ever does when the "should" word is used.

Good luck with whatever you decide. I really like Pandora radio through my iPhone, BTW, way better music selection than Sirius/XM.

Can you still connect and make calls with your iphone via the OEM Bluetooth connection AND play music from the same device? I thought that you can only connect to one device via Bluetooth.

cobra guy

yes

Yes you can use bluetooth music and phone at the same time. It will turn music off when getting a call then back on when you hang up (visseo BT device).

My .1 is an '05. Have done a lot of reading on our site, but still am confused about all the possible ways to go to enable bluetooth for phone & music. Even an aux cable solution would be better than stock. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks...

Me too, '05. I just got one of these, it's awesome, easy to install, and inexpensive.
