I gave up. I drove over to the Porsche dealership, walked up to the parts counter, and asked the guy to get it apart for me.
He and a technician put it in a vice and took two tiny flathead screwdrivers and pried the two pieces apart without breaking them.
I just broke out the old one instead of trying to dismantle it to get it out of the face plate.
The new one popped right in and the whole thing took five minutes.
Now my radar detector and GPS plugs stay firmly in place and the lighter doesn't pop out and roll on the floor during hard driving.
I'm always replacing something on the car like this. What's next? The little convenience light housing in the front trunk. Mine has fallen apart due to age and heat.
