This unit looks great and matches the rest of the interior. I love the fact that it has inputs, bluetooth and a microphone for hands free. Since mine still works though I'm still going with the Tranzit Blu.

I was going to try and keep the CDR-210, but I wanted a USB, so this seemed like the next best thing.

There are two ways of using the mic. There's the one on the front of the unit, and the other option is to use the mic which connects to the back of the unit, with a long bit of cable. I'm going to go this route, and run it over to the location on the instrument panel where the factory mic would have been. Here's a pic of it in a 993. Looks pretty good...

One of the buttons on my key fob PCB broke today...Porsche quoted me $380 for programmed new one. Wife had no faith in me that I could fix it. Found my soldering iron and fixed it right up. I guess I should get a key cut so I have a spare.
