He's priced around 50% more than the other sellers I have seen.

Have the Continental, installed a month ago and absolutely no problems. I emailed Tore Bergvill before I bought it and got back to me stating he has had two reported problems with them. He has had nothing but success with them besides that. Hope that helps, fits nice and works perfect.

Is this what you are looking for? Tore Bergvill has this as this is where I got it.

Default Conti works well
I’ll second what CBA said: I have had the Continental TR installed for ~8 months now. I use it with an iPhone 8 for streaming and have had no issues. The BT and in-built mic works surprisingly well for phone calls also as long I am not driving too fast (Targa).

I have the Porsche classic and it’s great, but overpriced. If I were to do it over, I would go conti.

I've had mine for 2-3 years now and never had an issue with the Bluetooth and my Iphone. It works better than the factory Blulogic system in my Tacoma even.

The conti looks a bit busy imo compared the Porsche Classic.. but for 1/10th of the price, I'm sure you can live with it. Here's the classic in my 993:

^ that looks period correct. Definitely another good option besides the continental.

Looks like your car is RHD. Does the radio work in the US? Same frequency bands?

Yes RHD and in the UK. I'm not sure regarding the frequencies but did read the AM frequencies have incorrect spacing for the US.
