Anyone else experienced this? Also does anyone know what the part number would be for this and where I can buy parts online?
Thanks.

Hi,
The Turn Indicator, Wiper/Washer and Cruise Control are a single unit. The OBC stalk is separate (it screws into the rest of the Combo Switch), but not sold separately.
The PN # is 996.613.219.00 and lists for $185-$225USD. An alternative would be to get one from any of the dismantlers around such as LA Porsche Dismantlers or Oklahoma Foreign. Figure about $150 for these.
The switch is really just Plug&Play. If you have any mechanical accumen, there's no need to pay a Dealer or Mechanic to install. It can be done in about 30 min., but does involve removing the Airbag and Steering Wheel. This sounds much more complex than it really is. I've done this 4 times on Boxsters, never had a problem. I can send you step-by-step instructions if you want. PM me and give me your email addy. Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
