I don't think there is something wrong with my eyes. Thanks for the concern though!

Yes, if you follow the link to the Pcar mount posted above you will see the RHD option. (Posted here for reference).

Ordered one for my 964 for the trip to Italy this summer, exactly what I was looking for. Looks really good.

Pros:
Solid mount for my phone (iPhone 6 Plus)
Unobtrusive look
Included Allen keys and ample hardware

Cons:
Fairly expensive relative to a $10 window mount.
Hides the driver view of radio, defroster/ fog light pulls
Makes access to CCU a little more awkward
Only one piece of adhesive backed metal included

For me, I prefer the clean view through the windshield. The access/view to the CCU and radio aren't that big a deal as I usually reach for them by muscle memory anyway.

I would have preferred to have 3 or 4 of the adhesive backed magnetic strips included (wife has a different device than me), I'll change devices eventually, etc.

Two Allen keys were included. A 4mm ball end made the dash screw a lot easier to install. You need to provide your own but driver to tighten the acorn nuts.

Taken it for a couple of spirited drives without issue. Happy with the product other than a couple niggles and the relatively expensive price.

Overall, 4 out of 5 stars.

Appreciate your input! I will pass it along. Cheers

Installed mine now too, have exactly the same comments as Greg_V. Blocking the stereo and making the already ergnomically challenged switches a bit more inaccessible. But overall a decent product, preferable to the suction cup to the windshield option.
Cheers,
Tore
