hmmm, you've peaked my curiosity. Who is going to be the guinea pig?

I've already installed the iSimple Tranzit BLUE HF Bluetooth converter for my CDR23 to give my iPhone access to my radio.

It would be really cool to replace the head unit with something more contemporary.

I'm also curious as my 996 has BOSE MOST. Rather not redo the whole system, just the head unit.

During my recent Continental install kerfuffle I spoke with Rod Birch at Car Audio Innovations https://cai-store.com/ to help sort things out. He is a guru when it comes to Porsche audio as far as I am concerned. I would be looking there for proven hifi solutions. He is not hot on the whole idea of the Continental pin outs with the LOC converter. Lets hope the Bluetooth actually works with the Continental. In hindsight I screwed up saving some money and should have gone to Rod at CAI. My $0.02
