can anyone find/identify this?

When the top is folded down on my '00 S there's a hole with an allen-like bolt in the "elbow" folded part of the convert. top frame. There's a plastic plug / cap on the passengers side and just a hole on the drivers side exposing this nasty dirty bolt hole. I have to look at it every time I get into the car. I know this is a petty issue, but does anyone have a suggestion as to where I can find this part??? I've looked at the diagrams on rennlist and still can't find it. I can take a pic when I go home for lunch??? It's just a inch or so long plastic trim plug.

thanks!
sean

This is a good parts schematic of the boxster. It's a great way to find pieces by visual location only, and it'll give you something to do if you're bored at work. During lunch of course...

Sounds like the spin lock for the hardtop to me.
