Suspected cause

Probably a breakers is your best bet, because I very much doubt Porsche will sell that small part separately.

My thinking is that I can use the 'dial' that surrounds the wiper adjuster knob to fill in that small 5mm gap between the USB charger and the dash.

I've not really got a lot of use for a cigarette lighter, so I've been looking to change it into something more useful.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've not really got a lot of use for a cigarette lighter, so I've been looking to change it into something more useful. I exercised my Google-foo and found the 'worlds smallest in car USB charger', here: http://www.mymemory.co.uk/Portable-...Traveller-MotorMonkey-In-Car-Portable-Charger It arrived on Saturday, and it doesn't quite fit flush with the rest of the dash (if it did, it would've looked perfect), it sticks out proud by about 5mm However, all is not lost. On the opposite side of the dash is the knob to adjust the speed of your wipers. This too sits proud by about 5mm. My thinking is that I can use the 'dial' that surrounds the wiper adjuster knob to fill in that small 5mm gap between the USB charger and the dash. To see the knob I mean, look here (bottom right of the photo): http://www.porscheshop.co.uk/acatalog/1086_large.jpg So, does anyone know where I can get hold of such a small part?! Cheers!

POST 2Original post

Probably a breakers is your best bet, because I very much doubt Porsche will sell that small part separately. People like Porsch-apart, Jasmine or Douglas Valley are recommended.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks GD - I'll give them a try!

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well I've got my first price back from Porscheshop - near as damnitt £40 delivered. Hopefully I'll get a better price from the breakers. Failing that I'll see if I can make something up myself. I'm not paying £40 for a small piece of plastic...

POST 5Original post

Hi, From a dealer they are £27 plus vat... I will see if we have one lying around that we have swopped as these do fail from time to time. Mike

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Mike, Huge thanks, one for pointing me somewhere cheaper, and two for having a look around to see if you also have one! I'm sure I only need the rotating ring - so £40 seemed a little steep for a small circle of plastic Many thanks again!
