Porsche Cayenne II 958 / 955 / 957 2011-2017 - 8.4-inch OEM-style Android 15 upgrade
Your Cayenne II keeps its climate panel, its dash-top clock and its console shape. What changes is the screen above them: the HB/HV7016 drops an 8.4-inch Android 15 display into the factory opening and runs wireless CarPlay, Android Auto, 4G LTE and an RDS radio. It's the same console you already like.
We build this faceplate for the Porsche Cayenne II 2011-2017, across the 958, 955 and 957 build codes, in cars with the factory screen up top. The panel's moulded to that opening, so you won't cut or file anything.
Trim level decides the wiring rather than the screen, so send us your model year and VIN and we'll check the version before it ships.
| Model | Vehicle | Model years |

Two factory console layouts turn up on this car and our note sheet ticks both: the one with the longer SOURCE, TUNER, NAV, BT, TRAFFIC and OPT button row, and the one with SOURCE, HOME and CAR. Whichever is in your Porsche Cayenne II, the panel around it stays put.
The trip menu, the average-consumption screen and the map database the car shipped with. Your console is fine; it's the display that dates, and it feels frustrating next to a modern phone.
An 8.4-inch Android 15 display in the same opening, running wireless CarPlay, Android Auto, 4G LTE and an RDS tuner, with a DSP behind it.
This is our UI walkthrough for the HB, HV, DHG and DHF builds, and it's the quickest way to see how the launcher, the radio and CarPlay behave here.

Three routes, and they're not the same purchase. Keeping the factory unit keeps the OEM look and the original buttons. A marketplace listing is cheaper on the sticker, but the photo rarely tells you which Android build is inside or whether the optical link for a BOSE car is handled. So what separates them? Usually the harness and the version, not the screen size, and that's the part you can't see in a listing.
The third route is buying from the people who tool the faceplate: a moulded panel, a published platform and someone to send your VIN to.
| What you are comparing | Keep the factory unit | A marketplace listing | HB/HV7016 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Display | The original screen and its aged menu | Panel quality varies by listing | 8.4-inch Android 15 display in the factory opening |
| Phone | No wireless upgrade path | Often wired only | Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto |
| Radio and sound | Factory tuner, fixed curve | RDS is often dropped | ST7708 tuner with RDS, built-in DSP |
| Amplifier wiring | Factory amplifier, optical link | Optical support rarely documented | RCA interface; optical fibre by version |
The first two columns describe each route in general; the third lists our published specification.
The board matters more than the bezel.
Both builds run Android 15 on a UIS8581A Cortex-A55 octa-core at 1.6GHz. The HB carries 2GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, the HV 4GB and 64GB. If you keep offline maps and apps on the unit itself, I'd take the HV; if your phone does the work through CarPlay, the HB is plenty.
The unit pairs over the air, so a short trip doesn't need a cable at all. The CarPlay home screen fills the 8.4-inch panel with your app grid and a second page you swipe across, and Android phones get Android Auto on the same glass.
Radio runs through an ST7708 tuner with RDS, so station names still come through, and the audio path uses a built-in DSP with a TDA7851 amplifier IC over an RCA interface. Does the optical fibre matter? On a car with BOSE or Burmester speakers it does, and it's the question I've heard most often on a Porsche Cayenne II. Two other facts matter before you buy: there's no HDMI output on this platform, and an external microphone is included, so your hands-free calls come through clearly.
Four screens, no thinking required. The Android launcher holds settings, media and your apps; CarPlay brings its own home screen; the tuner has a full-width radio page; and navigation runs inside whichever app your phone mirrors. The status bar keeps the time, the 4G signal and your phone's battery in view.
Four items are listed as optional: a DVR camera, DAB radio, an OBD2 reader and tyre pressure monitoring. The unit also takes a reversing camera input, which is the one most buyers add first.
The vehicle-dependent item is the audio system, and it's the mistake I see most often. If your Porsche Cayenne II has speakers with no logo, no optical fibre is needed; a BOSE or Burmester grille means you'll need the optical version. Send us a photo of your door speaker with the VIN and we'll name the harness, because finding out halfway through the job is the annoying kind of surprise, and doing the work twice makes a tedious afternoon.
Read the configuration sheet below before you choose a build.
Send us your model year, the VIN and a photo of the console you have now, and we'll name the right version in a single reply. That's how we'd rather start a build than guess from a listing photo and leave you with an awkward phone call.

Send the year and the VIN, and we'll confirm the build that matches your car.
See the HB/HV7016 on our product pageThe faceplate is built for the 2011 to 2017 car across the 958, 955 and 957 build codes. Send us your model year and the VIN and we'll confirm the version before it ships.
Yes. The faceplate sits above the climate panel, and the clock, the switches and the console shape are untouched, so you keep the interior you've got.
It depends which one. Speakers with no logo need no optical fibre. A BOSE or Burmester grille means the optical link is needed, and we'll supply the matching harness.
Same screen, same platform, different memory. HB is 2GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, HV is 4GB and 64GB. Run navigation and media on the unit itself and I'd take the HV; if your phone does the work through CarPlay, the HB is enough.
Yes. Both factory console layouts shown on the product page carry a tick on our note sheet, so the same faceplate covers the longer button row and the SOURCE, HOME and CAR version.
Four are listed as optional: a DVR camera, DAB radio, an OBD2 reader and tyre pressure monitoring. The reversing camera input sits on the unit, and the external microphone comes with it.
