This is a great mirror with the Boxster and the outside temp and compass are a big help.

Only issue is finding a path to run the temperature probe up to the lower grills on the bumper. Had to remove the headlights, front trunk liner, etc to find a path for the cable. Had to feed it through a few rubber grommets in the firewall. It can be done!!!

Also, had to use a conventional mirror mount - just mounted it to the right of the Porsche puck. Top of the puck mount should be at least 2" below the plastic headliner.
Thanks Peter, I purchased one of these.
