If he doesn't have any (and I suspect he ran out a long time ago) you can get one cheap from Sunset in Oregon, and you can paint the clip black if you like.

I have a black boxster and wouldn't paint that clip black for any reason though. Two reasons cause me to make this statement:

1) It's bad enough as it is with a red clip when I sit in my car, very frustrated, assuming the worst, when I cannot raise the top. Eventually I look up and see the red clip and realize that's the cause! If it were black, I might sit there even longer and not see it at all, thinking my car is broken in some way again.

2) With the clip on and being red, anyone who knows boxsters (and thieves do know a lot about the cars they steal or steal stuff out of) can clearly see that if they reach in to grab something out of your cubby compartments, the motion sensor is going to go off.

Just my two cents' worth on this subject.
