My stereo isn't stock so I can't confirm that the cig lighter thing saves the stereo code, but I expect that it does.

Your battery needs to be replaced. Best to do it now and know you have a good battery for the next few years.
The adapter on my Black & Decker trickle charger doesn't fit into the Boxster cigarette lighter hole. Apparently slightly smaller for the Porsche trickle charger adapter. A German car nuisance?
