Where can I find a longer lighter outlet?
 
Hi all,
I have been dealing with this but I really would like to get a proper lighter outlet for my 1999 Boxster. Non of my accessories fit properly and I have to wedge a shim just to keep them from falling out. Where can I get one?

I think it was 2002 that the smaller lighter socket started.

Call Sunset or Suncoast Porsche and order the US spec lighter....

Part #s needed:
996-652-101-10-A05 Socket
996-652-102-10 Lighted retaining ring

Total cost for parts last May was $12.35 but I'm sure it's gone up since then. The swap out is very easy and will take 10-15 min total. Good luck :)

Thanks! That's what I needed. I have taked that part of the console apart a few times so it will be an easy swap.

I wouldn't say it is easy. Removing the lighter from the trim took me about an hour to figure out.
