Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

There are 30 keys for the locking bolts, so unless you know the number, then it is likely OPC only. I have heard that most of the workshops have a box of keys somewhere in the corner, and may help you out cheaper than you think, if you take the car there.

I had the same situation recently. +ve...key can be obtained. However, you will need to take to opc and they will match it. Cost me around £25. -ve even though they had a used one they still wouldnt sell it to me cheaper as they didnt want the risk of it snapping, Hmm! I would go for the replacement from opc. Just think, if it was not an original porsche part you would probably have had to have the bolts themselves drilled out at a huge cost. I spent hours on this issue, but still eventually went back to opc to purchase. Good luck
