Indicator Switch Replacement

[Chuck W.]

Easy stuff. Below are the part numbers. The ones ending in 00 are for ’97 to ’01 Boxsters and have a gloss finish. The ones ending in 01 are for ’02 to ’04 Boxsters and have a matte finish. They are all interchangeable and the finish is not all that noticeable. But, to be year correct you would want the ones ending in 01 with the matte finish.

You can use a two, three or four stalk switch on your Boxster. Even though you have the cruise control option, the two stalk switch will work. You’ll just have a single plug from the car’s wiring harness that won’t be used.

You can add the four stalk switch and it will give you the option of adding the OBC (On Board Computer) function. There are a ton of articles and videos on how to do this.

IMHO, put the four stalk in. Even though you don’t use the cruise control it would be nice to have for any future owners or drivers. And, the OBC is a very cool function. As long as you are going to be getting a new switch it is a great time to upgrade to the OBC.

With some basic tools and a moderate to low level of mechanical abilities this is an easy and doable DIY project.

Good luck and keep us posted.
