Hi Everyone:

Looking to swap out my aftermarket Alpine radio for a period correct Porsche Becker CR-210.

I am seeking a unit in working condition with Bluetooth streaming capability built-in. As for the condition, if possible a unit which does not have any scratches/scrapes or wear marks on the buttons. Radio code, manual and extraction keys are also desired.

Hit me up if you got one you want to sell.

I saw a few on ebay being sold by Becker with the bluetooth update.

Goose - I saw those radios on eBay but would rather buy a unit from a Porsche owner. Most, if not all of them, are being sold by radio refurbishers.

This is sold by Becker Autosound. I heard good things about them.

Depending on the build date of your '95 993, the Alpine radio may be original to your car. The Alpine 7807 AM?FM?CD was the interim factory offering between the CR-1 and the CDR-210. With the hi-fi sound option, the 7807 sounds quite good.

SKM - You are correct the CR-210 is period correct for 1996 and higher 993s. The only reason I’m seeking a CR-210 is because it is the closest I can get to period correct with Bluetooth capabilities. I know the CR-1 cannot be modified for this function. Do you know if the Alpine 7807 can stream via Bluetooth?

I don’t know, never looked into that.

Saw a cdr-220 on craigslist with bluetooth via cd changer port.

WTB: black handbrake. Trying to find used before I resort to dying my current grey one, or spend 500$ on a new one.

I have used Becker auto sound multiple times. They are the best in the business of concealed blue tooth for retrofitting and selling period correct Porsche CDRs and others as well as other marques for Mercedes and BMW. Their process is seamless, pricing is reasonable and the quality of the BT integration is flawless once installed. Highly recommend. You can send them your own head unit and they add the BT and send it back to you. about a 10 business day turnaround. All the best..

Good to hear! I ordered a set of removal keys and plan to send my cdr-210 in for bluetooth upgrade.

@Goose 993 Yes and the best part is you don't need to set the radio source to any particular setting like CD or Tape or FM, AM etc. The signal is live all the time so all your cell phone or other device has to do is pick it up once bluetooth is on. So if you get in the car with a CD running or an FM station playing it stays on until you connect to bluetooth on your phone or device and then it switches source. No static, no interference. Good luck!

WTB Always on the lookout for a 993 GP white rear deck with good original paint that hasn't been drilled into or otherwise effed with. Don't really need the spoiler element or motors/wires etc but if you happen to have the whole thing I'll happily buy it complete.

Wtb 993 speedometer for 96+. Ok if it needs a rebuild...
