Yes. You can get it from Becker North America (Continental Imports ~$430) or your Porsche dealer for $800!

Be sure and order the Porsche mounting bracket from Becker (~$16) and the radio removal keys ($1.80). The car is pre-wired so everything just plugs in.

The changer we use for the Becker 210/220 radio heads is the Becker 2660 - which the same as the unit as the Porsche CDC-3 changer but without the Porsche logo and price. The 2660 comes in a box with the cable that runs from the radio head to the changer. It also mounts on the Porsche oem bracket so you do not have to use the universal bracket that comes in the box.

Problem is, the 2660 has been discontinued by Becker and replaced by 7860. 7860 works but it is a different size and the mounting points are different than the 2660 so it will not mount on the oem bracket - but you can use the universal bracket. Continential has come up with an adapter to mount the 7860 on the oem bracket.

I see used or refurbished 2660/CDC-3 units on ebay so you can try there if you cannot find old stock 2660 units new. Or go with the 7860 and used the universal bracket or buy the adapter and use the oem bracket. Jeff
