Hi,
The Relay you're looking for is Relay #4 in the forward Relay Panel which is located above the Left Footwell Kick Panel (I assume on the right-hand side for RHD models). The top row of Relays, going Lft.-Rht., are #1-#4. The Rear/Mirror Heater Relay is taller than any other Relays in that row. It is just Plug & Play (though it may be wedged in fairly tight). 1st try pulling it and cleaning the contacts to see if that fixes the issue. The Porsche Part# is: 996.615.117.00 . It lists for $26USD.
This Relay is unique and not used anywhere else in the car. That said, it's probably just a standard relay. I'd pull it and take it to a General Auto Parts store and see if you can find a generic which will certainly be less ££ than buying from the Dealer. Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
PS Not certain what you mean by vent near the rear window? But, there is no vent/forced air to the rear windscreen. Are you speaking of the side vents on either rear flank of the car? The Left is the Air Intake for the Engine and the Right is an Engine Compartment Purge, which has an Exhaust Fan behind it to aid in cooling the Engine Compartment...
